>Hey Dian. Do you happen to know why this ONLY happens with Word? I've always wondered why the installer only does this with Word and not Excel, Access, etc. Don't know for sure...but even though MS LIKES to think all their apps are the same, since each has it's own dev team...they HAVE done things differently over the years. They try harder now to work together, but my GUESS is it has to do with legacy code issues. Dian D.
