WordX in OS10.2
Authored by: howard123 on Sep 17, '02 01:48:20PM

I find that Word closes up on me very often in OSX102 even in new documents started in 10.2. This seems to occur even more frequently since I installed Endnote 6 beta version. Has any one else had trouble with Word and Endnote?
Thanks

I discovered the SAME THING!!! I chucked the Word that I installed the Trial Version of EndNote on and reinstalled Word again...without installing EndNote.

Regarding the Word crashes on 10.2, I've noticed that opening *.txt files kills Word. *.doc files work fine, so far.

I, too, have had Word crash frequently on me in 10.2. It happens most often after I've called up the Page Setup dialog box, specified the printer, and checked the margins in "page attributes." My practice is to Save immediately after clicking "ok," and in the process of saving, Word "unexpectedly quits" and I have to restart. Sometimes Word quits in the middle of nothing in particular. Also, I've had documents corrupted while they're being opened. This last problem is something that only rarely, if ever, happened under 10.1, and prior versions (Word 98, Word 5.1, etc.). Also, after printing many copies of a not particularly complicated document, Word has slowed to such a crawl that I've actually been forced to reboot, as quitting Word and relaunching it doesn't seem to cure the problem.

I've got other complaints about Entourage that aren't germane here.

So, what do we do?
