yep...you are correct that Word may not be creating a new normal.dot since you are only getting in with the /a switch......did you try rechecking both those macros and seeing if that fixes it?
sounds to me that if you are having those additional file problems that this is more than a Word problem. Are you able to open any other Office programs? like Excel or Access? at this point I really don't know what else to tell you....the fact that you are getting a vbe error means that there is something screwy in visual basic....if it was Word with the problem, I would think the error would be vbA, not vbE probably if you run the Office Detect and Repair (if it's Word 2k or 2002), you would get your normal.dot file back.....or you could just restore it from the recycle bin I'm still wondering if reinstalling the scanner software would fix it otherwise, I'm thinking it might be time to format your hard drive and install Windows from scratch :-( Linda Linda's Computer Stop http://www.personal-computer-tutor.com/main.htm Editor, ABC ~ All 'Bout Computers http://www.personal-computer-tutor.com/ABC.htm Online Instructor, Eclectic Academy http://www.eclecticacademy.com/index.htm -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 07, 2002 3:53 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: PCWorks: Winword page fault in VBE6.dll Linda, I did the above as instructed and found only unchecked two files. WFWORDZK.DOT and FineReader5.DOT which is from that startup file I can not delete. When I go thru the explorer to the startup file and then right click on FineReader5 then select Delete it say are you sure you want this in the recycle bin I click yes and then a message comes up saying you cannot delete this file, Access Denied. That is why I uninstalled FineReader but that file remains. Is it possible because I can not get into word that the Normal.DOT is not recreated? Does it recreate when I go in thru the switch /a. If it does I can not find it thru the find routine. Thanks for hanging in there with me. There is only one more factor that has been found but it is with Windows. I do a File Check and it comes up with 10 files that are missing or corrupt in Windows but I have been unable to get them restored thru the Win 98 disc as it keeps asking me for what folder and I have been unable to find the files in any folder on my Win98 CD.
