Office XP and DDE Server Window

B

Bert Smith

Hi all

I am using Office XP SP2 and Windows XP SP1 with all the recommended
updates.

I do a bit of copying and pasting from IE 6 SP1 web pages downloaded (again,
with all the recommended, etc) into Word XP. Every now and then on shutting
down the computer the message "DDE server window is not responding" appears.
It makes no difference if I let XP go through the motions of allowing the
server window to shut down gracefully by itself. A number of files (four or
five) are left in %temp%, some with the acr*.tmp, others with acs*.tmp.
These can't be deleted until XP has been restarted. Using Windows XP's Task
Manager I find that the number of processes have increased by about 3 or 4
from what it usually is.

All I can think of is to do an Office XP detect and repair(?).

Cold anyone please point me in the right direction? Please address any
replies to the news group. My email address is false. Bert Smith
