Sounds like you've stepped into a real quagmire there.... It makes my brain hurt to try and follow along the normal.dot and permissions and Win7 and Win NT and...... stuff.... BUT I can offer two minor, probably meaningless things to at least try. 1 - Clear temp files and such and run scandisk (or Win 7 equiv) 2 - In Task Manager, display the processes running and make sure you don't already have an occurance of Word running. Playing with automation often times leaves these Office apps dangling.... Sorry, that's all I gots....
