I'm using Office 2007 on Win7 ult 64 bit and I try to open a Word doc that was created using Office 2003, I get a whole slew of errors relating to Normal.dotm.

* Can't open
* There was a problem with Normal.dotm
* XML 5.0 needs to be installed again
* Would you like to mark the file for rescue... etc
* Insert install disk and run Repair
* Can't open (again)

Then it opens the file!

This is followed by another series of similar messages when I try to Save the doc, Word freezes and I have to 'End Task.'

I've reinstalled and run Repair and it might work once, then the same thing starts happening again.

Anyone?

Thanks - rev
