Interesting...so I am going to have to call Microsoft so my PC doesn't d/l their update everytime I logon?! Quote from: Doksa on March 12, 2010, 05:22:37 PM SP 3...Of course not. The link I posted is a one-time solution so that the problem does not reoccur. Did you not carefully read it? Visit it again and TAKE a careful look at it. Does it seem to fit your situation? If it's confusing, I suggest you go ahead and try the Fix this problem link shown there. EDIT: Well, hold up before you try the Fix this problem link shown there. Where it says: "When a file has the ".doc" file name extension, but the content is a plain text file or another kind of file that is not a Microsoft Word binary file, and that file is opened in Microsoft Word, you may receive the following error message up to three times before Microsoft Office Word successfully opens the file", does that fit your situation? |
