I'm using MS Office 2003. When I try to open .doc files in Windows Explorer
or a Shortcut of Word, a Microsoft Office Word dialog box opens up with this
message: “Word experienced an error trying to open the file. Try these
suggestions. 1. Check file permissions for the document or drive. (Don’t know
how) 2. Make sure there is sufficient free memory & disk space ( I have
plenty of both) and 3. Open the file with the Text Recovery converter.†(I
don’t know what this means). When I click OK on this dialog box, MS Word
opens up normally and File/Open, opens up my .doc files normally. Also,
clicking on the Word Icon on the desktop opens up Word without seeing the
error message! One more fact: If Word is already open in the background and I
click on a .doc file in Windows Explorer or a shortcut of Word, I receive no
error messages! So, if someone can tell me how to get rid of those seemingly
unnecessary Dialog boxes, I certainly would appreciate it. Thank you.
