Problem with Office 2003

There is a conflict between Word and Outlook that really "bugs" me. If
Outlook is running Word will not run correctly. I hate having to shut down
Outlook in order to use Word. For what it is worth, I can make the window
smaller [minimize] but when Word is as big as it can get, there is space
between the top edge of the window and the top of the display and the bottom
of the window is out of sight at the bottom of the display. If you click &
hold on the blue band on the top of the window, you cannot drag it up, down,
or sideways; it is as if it is frozen. The only way to be able to get Word
maximized and centered so it can be used is to shut down Outlook.

Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

I have heard of this once before and I don't think we ever resolved the
problem. It is obviously a very rare occurrence. You will have to raise a
problem report with Microsoft.

The only idea I have thought about is are you running Word in Windows
Compatibility Mode?

It's a function of Windows. On my computer the compatibility utility is
under Start, All Programs, Accessories, Program Compatibility Wizard.

:I am not sure where that parameter is changed. Please advise.
