    NO Save As

    This happens with the MS office (2000) package only.

    I have a document that I would like to save as, and it will save it with the "default" name, but when I try to change the name to something that I will later recognize it shuts down the program. In other words when I hit any key while the "file name" dialog box is active the program shuts down instantly.

    Like I said this doesn't happen in paint, works etc.

    I have already un-installed and re-installed.

    Ok, Problem solved. Using windows error reporting tool, I found a common denominator - riched20.dll-

    I searched, found it in windows/system32, renameded it and extracted an "new" file from my XP-pro CD. Problem solved.

    Now If I could only figure out how it happened in the first place????
