Hi, as stated , when I went to view documents I have saved they wont open and error message.
"Microsoft office 2010 cannot be opened. try again or repair in control panel"
I tried to "change" in control panel and nothings happening. I performed system restore to last week when all was fine and still the programme wont open.

    The application version number suggests that you are running Office 2007 and not 2010.

    There is a Microsoft help to Word startup problems here (which may or may not help!):
