What causes Word to not respond when I open it?

[qhlvr709]

When I go to type a doc, sometimes I just get a white page then when I click
I get a "not responding" error message in the top bar. Also, If I do get it
to "hook up", then I type a doc and try to "Save As.." it bogs down, kind of
locks up and I have to click all over the place to get the error message to
get it to close down and reopen it. Then, I have to either retype the entire
doc or it saved a portion of it and I have to retype the rest. Also, it seems
if I rush it, Word doesn't want to respond. Heeeellp!!

I've already took out the current version and re installed all of Office.
That didn't do anything. Any other suggestions?

In this particular case, it could be that Word is not seeing your printer
correctly.
