Word 2007 Help!

[reaper512]

Okay, I installed Office '07 on my XP machine awhile back and it worked fine. However, Word now, only runs in Safe Mode. (not XP safe mode, office safe mode) any help?

Could be a few things. If you start it from a shortcut instead of the "main", Start Menu object, check the Properties and make sure it doesn't have the /safe switch in the Target: field, i.e. "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\WINWORD.EXE" /safe.

Try this:

Make a shortcut like mentioned above and go to its Properties. Click in the Target: field and hit End then Space, and type /r, i.e. "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\WINWORD.EXE" /r

Click OK and double-click the shortcut. Then try to run Word as you normally would (without the /r switch).

I have some other ideas if that doesn't do it.
