Word Exits when closing document (2003)

Topic

I thought I saw a post about this awhile back but couldn’t find anything via the search feature.

One of our users is having a problem with Word closing the program each time she closes the document she is working on. She uses the small “X” in the right corner to exit her document. Does anyone know the fix for this?

TIA,

Deb

Do you use Word as mail editor in Outlook? If so, see if turning that off (in the Mail Format tab of Tools | Options… in Outlook) makes the problem go away.

Otherwise, check out Phil Rabichow’s Systematic Approach to Behavioral Problems in Word (97/2000).

Thank you Hans. Closing Word as the email editor fixed this problem. We’ve even restarted Word as the editor and the problem hasn’t returned …yet!

Yes, that’s the one Andrew!

Good going. I swear I put every combination of words in the search engine and that one didn’t pop up! But I do admit that I didn’t use the word “open” in my search combination…and I probably didn’t look as far back as 2002
