Word Menus getting corrupted

[Anil]

Hi All,

I have written a COM addin which adds a submenu under file and menu items
under it. This works fine most of the times.

However, I recently came to know that my custome menus are overwriting those
of word sometimes. Specifically, menus under Insert ->AutoText ->Header/
Footer are being overwritten. This happens randomly on some machines. It has
been seen on Word 2000 and Word 2k3. Not yet on Word 2k2.

Can anyone tell me what the problem could be?

Thanks and Regards,
Anil

Not without seeing the code that's causing the problem...
