Publisher 2007 Error, Windows Vista

[Joseph Daigle]

I have an issue using Publisher 2007 on Windows Vista 32bit. When attempting
to print (or print preview) the user interface locks up and my only option
is to ctl-alt-del. I cannot switch windows, I cannot bring up task manager.
The UI still displays updates (outside of Publisher), but I cannot "use" any
of the interface except the Windows Security menu via ctl-alt-del.

If I attempt a logout I can force Publisher to stop. This is followed by two
logged events:

---

1. Source: Office 12, Event ID 5000

The description for Event ID 5000 from source Microsoft Office 12 cannot be
found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your
local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair
the component on the local computer.

The following information was included with the event:
