Mac Forum / Applications / Word / June 2008Opening Documents in Word 2008
Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) Processor: intel When I click on the File Menu then select Open I get the box to select the file, the box (with the vertical columns) is blank and infinitely wide, it never ends you can scroll sideways forever. The only way out of this is to Force Quit. I can get around this by locating a file via Finder and then clicking on it, word then opens with the document with no issue. All suggestions would be appreciated as I don't like saying my Mac crashed ! See here: http://word.mvps.org/Mac/Word2008Issues.html#FileOpen But I would also expect that a fully updated Word (to 12.1.1) might run into this less often. Use Help | Check for Updates, and run it at least twice. > Version: 2008 > Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) > Processor: intel > > When I click on the File Menu then select Open I get the box to select the file, the box (with the vertical columns) is blank and infinitely wide, it never ends you can scroll sideways forever.

The File-Open feature not only works, but does so quickly. Thank you very much. Yours, Guy |
