Word won't open

[Barb]

Running Windows 98. Word will no longer open. The error
message is "Winword has performed an illegal operation and
will be shut down. If problem persists contact vendor."
The details are, "Winword caused and invalid page fault in
module Winword.exe at 017F:300808bd."

I have been experiencing the same problem since the 20th
of this month. I still cn't open, but there are alot of
suggestions to try in my original thread. You should try
those first. Yesterday, it was on page 6, so try 7 and 8.
Good Luck!

The same suggestion is offered in probably half the threads in this NG: see
