Word and Publisher errors

Hi all

posted on here about 6 weeks ago as my Dell Inspiron 6000, with XP SP2 and Office 2003 Pro, kept producing Word and Publisher errors and shutting down the programmes.

MSE'rs helped me sort that out by 'repairing' the office installation.

Last night I was drafting an Order of Service for a Reqiem Mass for my OH's grandfather (who sadly passed away recently) and the same errors and shutting down began happening again - every couple of minutes. As the OH was hanging over my shoulder while I was trying to work this caused much stress and under the breath cursing - this was after midnight and I needed the draft finished by this morning.

I suppose I can 'repair' the office installation again...but any ideas why these errors might have re-appeared once again :confused:

thanks

:beer:

Fininshed the task eventually btw - it looks good but V. stressful at the time
