Hi;
Had a really irritating problem with Word 97, followed by Word 2000 when I
upgraded; couldn't work out what I might have done, and was getting the
following error message:
Run-time error '-2147467259 (80004005)':
Method 'PrivateProfileString' of object 'System' failed
Microsoft Knowledgebase was useless and I'd actually got round to writing a
message to the Windows ME group when a search on Google groups unearthed a
similar problem a few months ago, and Beth had suggested looking for "global
addins". Sure enough, "MYOB" accounting package had a global addin added in,
and removing it resolved the problem straight away.
Thanks Beth - you're a star ;-)
(Of course, I'll have to think of a new way to export data from MYOB, but
for one client, once a year, I can live with that!)
