I searched but didn't find this problem. These docs didn't help either:
www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/CorruptDoc.htm nor ProbsOpeningWord.htm.
Often when I close Word, it crashes. The only culprit I can find is that it
seems to only happen when my normal.dot is set to READ-ONLY even when I have
made no changes to normal.dot during the session. Having normal.dot
READ-ONLY used to be the recommended way to avoid common viruses. This
didn't happen to me on earlier XP installments (pre SP1 or SP2). I'm running
licensed XP Pro Ver.2002 w/SP2 and licensed Word 2000 (9.0.6926 SP-3)
It is very obnoxious since I typically use PRNTSCRN to capture software
error messages then document by pasting into Word. This error is "always on
top" and won't cut to the clipboard. But it says:
+ MSWord for windows has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are
sorry for the inconvenience.
+ Faulting application winword.exe, faulting module winword.exe, version
9.0.0.8929, fault address 0x00143da6.
+ something about c:\windows\temp\281f_appcompat.txt
That file is too big to include here.
To work around the hang, I terminate the process tree through task manager
but it happens so often that I want to stop using Word (if only I didn't
enjoy its features so much!).
