Tech 425 3,942 Report post Posted January 28, 2014 Are you talking about Word 2007 on Win8 or WinXP If I get you right and Excel and PowerPoint is working right then something has gotten corrupted in Word I would 1st go to "Add Remove" in the "Control Panel" and chose Repair Office 2007 and see if that fixes it. If that doesn't then you can just run Office 2007 setup and chose custom install - uncheck all but Word 2007 then install Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark Phelps 473 Report post Posted January 28, 2014 rahulko25: I realize this is a frustrating problem ... but when someone advises you to do something and ALL you do in response is repeat your original post with some words highlighted in RED -- that does not help! We can all read, here. Repeating the same thing to us a second time is rude. You mention the PCs are connected through a Homegroup -- but XP does not use Homegroups. If you mean a Work group, that is different. Are any of the Word documents being accessed on a network share? Are any of them on one of the other PCs? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tech 425 3,942 Report post Posted January 29, 2014 I do understand this is very strange and I would have to still say rerun Office setup and chose custom install, uncheck all but Word 2007 and reinstall. To me it sounds like a system file is corupt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark Phelps 473 Report post Posted January 30, 2014 What I would suggest, before you do a reinstall, is the following: 1) Create a new Word document on each of the PCs. Do NOT put it in a shared folder. 2) Save and close each document on each PC. 3) Then, try to open each document again -- on each of the PCs. 4) Reconnect the network 5) See if you can NOW re-open the new document on each of the PCs. If you are sharing folders across the workgroup and you save the documents in any folders that are being shared, even if those folders are on the local machine, when you try to open a document in that folder, it's going to try to connect to the network. My guess is that connecting to the Win8.1 PC from the XP machines is "hanging" and that's what is preventing you from opening a document when the network is connectec. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MooN 3 Report post Posted February 1, 2014 Try to completely reinstall Microsoft Office on your PC's that are running Windows XP, if you already didn't do that. As I can see you didn't really do that, but I have to repeat it. As for the screenshots - your Microsoft Word got corrupted, that can usually happen if you try to install Word 2007/2010 over a already installed Word product. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark Phelps 473 Report post Posted February 7, 2014 It's important WHERE you create and save the documents. IF you create and save them to local folders -- that are NOT shared -- then having the network connected or not should make no difference. If you create and save them to shared folders, when the network is connected (even if the folder is local), you can get a hanging problem while the PC is trying to resolve network connections. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
