    hi, I am getting Run-Time error '5624' while running a Find/replace code. Pls help me. -- Thanks and Regards, Renjith R Nair
  • 2. Page format is printing on the page along with the text.
    My documents show the page format and file location on the page with the text. This only happens when I open a file from within Word. If I open a file from Windows explorer, it shows the normal page layout without all the file information. Word 97
  • 3. Word 2003 turns all text in html doc into a link.
    I have a doc with perhaps 100 screentips. Now, however, when I put the cursor over ANY word, it appears to have a screentip, and the words that ARE screentips display the wrong screentips. If you actually check the screen tip, it's entered correctly. My only solution so far is to select each line of non-screentip text, Ctrl-x it, then paste it back in as unformatted text. Also, and this is lovely, and related, but the "Enter" key doesn't work on these portions of the corrupted text. This is the second time this has happened and it's causing me to miss deadlines. Any solutions? --Sleepless in Seattle! -- Thanks, George
  • 4. Word 2003 File/Close closes Word
    I have the weirdest thing going on. One staff person has this problem out of 50. He clicks File/close and Word closes. I just set him up with a brand new PC, new Office 2003 install, and all was fine yesterday. I opened and closed a number of docs with no problem. Today he informs me it's happening again. I can find no settings to change to stop this from happening. Obviously, it's very aggravating. There are other oddities - the task pane doesn't come up any more, each new document, regardless of whether or not he has closed Word, is numbered at the next higher number instead of starting over at 1. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

How to remove macro virus from Office Applications

Postby Dee » Fri, 22 Aug 2003 04:19:12 GMT

Have Windows 98, Office 2000. Appears I have macro virus.
Cannot open Word, Excel or Powerpoint, or Norton AntiVirus.
When attempting to open documents, get error message:
"Normal.dot still infected, do you want to delete?" Have
deleted several times, have changed name to Normal.old,
have tried to open documents and select Macro from Tools
menu, but cannot "delete" from Macro menu. Have tried
everything. Have downloaded several virus tool removals
from online Norton AntiVirus.  

What else can I do?

Hi Dee,

Here is a link to article on the symantec web site that provides a resolution to the problem you are having. Let me know if 
this resolves the problem.

1.Macro Virus in MS Word - Office XP Pro

I have all the symptoms of a macro virus in Word on  my XP Professional computer running MS Office XP. When ever I try to open any file in Word on this computer or from My USB stick I am told that the file is not avaible. If I take the USB stick to another computer running Office 2003 I have no problem to open the doc. I have done virus scans with Norton and AVG and Trend Micro and all tell me my computer is fine. I spent 2 hours with Microsoft on the phone yesterday and got alot of different suggestions to try but nothing worked as well. Does any one know if I will have to format my hard drive to get rid of this macro virus... I have all my service packs and windows updates

2.Norton Anti-Virus says my office 2007 word docs have a VIRUS

I am not able to open any documents that I send, at least with Yahoo, because 
Norton Anti-Virus says they are infected. I have not yet tried to send 
documents to email addresses outside Yahoo, but then since most of my and my 
colleagues email is via Yahoo, I have a big problem with this. Can anyone 
help?  

3.Application.CustomizationContext = Application.Customization context is removing my doc's toolbars

Hi,

If I create a new document based on a template with toolbars, and then
execute the following line of code, my toolbars disappear:
Application.CustomizationContext = Application.CustomizationContext

I've tried this with Word 97-2003.  I simply opened a document, added
a custom toolbar, saved the document as a template, closed Word and
restarted it, created a new document based on my template (my toolbar
appears, as you'd expect), and then executed this line of code in VBA.

Originally this was found when I had code that cached the original
Application.CustomizationContext, loaded an addin, set the
CustomizationContext to my addin, and then tried to set the
Application.CustomizationContext back to its original value.  So then
I simplified my coding logic and came up with this.

Does anyone know what's going on here?  Perhaps I'm not understanding
the CustomizationContext too well, or global templates, or something
like that--I'm relatively green at Word automation.  Still, it seems
odd to me that this code should have such a side-effect.

Thanks for any help.
