I can open documents, that were recently made and are in the queue, but no
foreign documents, i.e. downloaded from a hard drive, internet, etc. The
documents I do open, I cannot properly edit - I can only add on to what was
written or delete from the end and continue that way. No shortcuts, such as
Ctrl-C, Ctrl-A, or anything of the sort, not even arrow keys; the mouse can't
reposition the little cursor or select anything. I can start new documents,
and type fine, but still no editing capabilities as mentioned before. I
uninstalled and reinstalled, nothing. I am up to date with microsoft. I am
using Vista if that helps, but it worked fine when I first installed word, it
just suddenly started acting this way. I looked at the help. The Norton
Internet Security doesn't mess with the word, never did. Also when I close
Word, it says "Office Word has stopped working" it trys to recover but always
just restarts the program with a blank doc. The problem never resolves and I
have to click the "x" in the middle of the message to actually close word,
otherwise it keeps restarting....
I looked at the web and didn't find any help... I read the posts but they do
not seem to address the issue. I tried the different methods of fixing it,
doesn't work.
I have no "~$*.do?" files.... please help....
