Running Office 2003 sp2 and having problems with Outlook 2003 Locks up randomly when I write, receive, read, delete, or sent e-mails. Like this morning. I had 3 lock-ups, one that required a re-boot of the machine, in 17 minutes. But now I have been working for 20 minutes without problems. Sometimes, I will minimize it, and forget about it, and in an hour I will switch to it, and it will have crashed, and I didn even realize.
Just installed Office Professional 2010. Outlook keeps locking up. I can get it to start, although slow but once I click on a folder is just churns away and nothing happens. I have to then shut it down and restart it. I have a number of pst files. I have tried removing them and starting with out them but that did not solve the problem. It locks even when clicking on tasks. Not sure how to resolve it.
Once in awhile, when trying to print a document in WORD 2000, it will say, "WORD is preparing to background print the document." in the lower left of the screen. It then seems to just lock-up and will not print or do anything. I have to Ctl/Alt/Del and shut down. Usually have to totally shut down the computer and re-start. What does "background print" the document mean and how can i fix this? It can realy be a hassle until I shut down and re-start. Sometimes that does not work the first time either.
I am using MS Office 2000 for small business (SBE SR1). For some reaso I am recently encountering a problem where I cannot open any Excel fil in say MyDocs without first having to open a new workbook and goin through the File/Open option. If I go into MyDocs directly and try t open an Excel file (which does have the Excel icon) it says "path no found ...... ensure library is complete etc.". I have tried repairing uninstall/reinstall and downloading all updates from Microsoft websit but it has made no difference. Can anyone help please :confused: Thanks
5.Constant excel lock-ups using Bloomberg add-in/DDE server
Hi, We've got several worksheets here that make extensive use of the bloomberg add-in. Some of these sheets are in excess of 10-15mb, and have several worksheets in them gathering data from many different sources. Several of these workbooks are shared. We have been having increasingly frequent problems with these books, very much in sync with our upgrading of hardware for the machines they run on. The faster the hardware, the more often we have lockups. We have taken some of the sheets and pared down the calls to JUST bloomberg, and we can get them to lock up fairly easily. When a "frozen" excel session is viewed using WinDbg, we get some interesting results: 1. Excel is spinning inside itself somewhere, performing the same loop forever (about 5-10 lines disassembled) 2. At any time during a freeze there will be 4 bloomberg-related threads, two of which will be in blpdatax somewhere, it looks like they are waiting for data and two of which will be in the middle of the bloomberg DLL DllUnregisterServer(). 3. RPC is doing something, presumably the workbook sharing overhead. Without fail, these threads will be there. Like I said, as our machines get faster (a necessity) the problem gets worse. I think we are seeing a very nasty race condition in the bloomberg excel / com / dde stuff, but am not positive. Has anyone else seen something similar to this?
