Is this program on the Window's CD or Office Professional 97 CD? Or
somewhere else.
This problem was caused by Microsoft and my own ignorance. I patched all of
my Microsoft software to fix their security problems. Everything was great.
Then I decided to add some of the missing features in Office 97 (HTML
support). Seems that now I had .dll from various and sundry generations of
Microsoft products. Then the system steadily down hill. After over 6 hours
on the phone with Microsoft (my dime) we finally decided to reinstall
everything from scratch, including Windows. What a pain!
Your thoughts as to keeping backups of your registry, etc. is a good idea.
I definitely plan to follow up on it.
Thanks
Guy
