Bloody Microsoft Word!
I've loads of problems with MS Word. Often stops responding or documents will not open.
I have followed advice offered when sending error reports (fax errors etc) but cannot understand or navigate the Microsoft Update site to determine the fix required.
Any ideas if there is a one-stop update rather than trawling through the list on the Microsoft site?

Try http://office.microsoft.com, click on the Updates (upper right for EN-US) and choose your version.
You may need your installation disk during the update. This process often fixes a variety of woes.
Good Luck!

Why people continue to buy MS's overpriced stuff escapes me.

I uses Open Office but open and save documents as Word, Excel etc. The problems related above occur when using Word on its own. I have noticed that using Open to generate docs subsequently opened with Word causes the shift of some data in "Headers & Footers" etc. I like Open Office and its free PDF function.
