I had problems with word, in that as soon as I clicked on it to open it up, it closed within about 10 seconds. I put a post on here, which has more details, see further down. I thought that the problem was solved.
However, one thing I forgot to do was try to save a new word document, soon as I tried to save it came up with the following message:
Word has insufficient memory. do you want to save document 1 as rescued document.
When I open a previously saved worddocument and change it, that has no problem.

second point is reference powerpoint. I open that and try and save that and it comes up with the following:
fretrysdmerror
An error occured while creating a file dialog. please save presentations, exit and then restart powerpoint.
It wont let me save the presentations.

Both of these applications plus a couple more are part of MS Office 2000

Any ideas

Neil

what are the specs for your computer?? do you have enough resources to run these programs?? also, do you use macros, some badly written macros will display that message, this is all for the Word error, i never use powerpoint so i couldnt answer

good luck

Thanks for replying. Yes I do have the resources to run it, as I have had these on my computer for a while now, with no problem. Do not use macros.
