Strange behavor by Word, quits

[Arild]

First, sorry for my english, from Norway.

I have Office XP, and therefor Word XP..., when I open a new document and
type this word: KOKKELANDSLAGET and pressing enter Word quits.

Same happens with BEDRIFTSIDRETTSLAGET.

These words are norwegians, "the countrys chef team" and "Companys atletichs
team"

I've got "Norwegian (Bokmål)" dictionary.

Have talked to the Microsoft support people in norway, they didn't have a
clue.

Thx in advance.

Since the error occurs as you are typing it could be caused by a
corrupt AutoCorrect file or proofing tools file.

To rule out AutoCorrect go to Tools/AutoCorrect and turn off "Replace
text as you type".

To rule out the dictionary, go to Tools/Options/Spelling and Grammar
and turn off "Check spelling as you type" and "Check grammar as you
type".

If you find the problem to be either of the above post back and we'll
go from there.

Hi, thx for the answer, but this did't solve the problem.

Word quits a very small second, after I pressing Enter at the end of the word.

Have you tried this your self?

I don't encounter the issue on my end however this could also be
caused by AutoText.

I apologize, I forgot to include this in my previous reply. To rule
out AutoText go to Tools/AutoCorrect Options and on the AutoText tab
turn off "Show AutoComplete Suggestions".
