When opening MSWord - I receive a message that states:

"this document could not be registered. It will not be possible to
create links from other documents to this document" - click on OK.

Once you click on OK - the message is removed and you go on as normanl.

I was thinking there was a possible problem with the license file - So
I reinstalled Word - thinking that this was solution. To my surprise
it wasn't. Anyone have or has had the same problem with a solution, I
would really like to know how to get rid of it.

Thanks for your time in advance!

Sherri :-)

SYMPTOMS
========

When you open a Microsoft Word document, one of the following error messages
may
appear:

This document cannot be registered.

-or-

This document cannot be registered. It will not be possible to create
links
from this document to other documents.

-or-

This document could not be registered.

CAUSE
=====

This problem may occur if the Windows registry has been corrupted.

RESOLUTION
==========

Use the following method to resolve this problem.

Run Setup with the /y Switch to Correct the Registry
----------------------------------------------------

To resolve this problem, try running Setup /y for Word or Office to repair
registry corruption.

To run Setup with the /y switch, follow these steps:

1. Insert the Word or Office CD into the CD drive. If you installed Word or
Office from floppy disks, insert the Setup Disk 1 in your computer's
floppy
disk drive.

2. Click the Start button, and then click Run.

3. In the Open box, type the following:

" <drive>:\setup /Y" (without the quotation marks)

where <drive> is the letter of the drive that contains the CD or Setup
Disk 1.

4. Click OK.

5. Click Reinstall.

This re-registers Word (and all Office programs, if you run Office Setup).

Hi, Sherri -

The following microsoft kb article: Q198374 - WD97: Error Message: "This

Thanks for the microsoft kb articla Q198374 - WD97: However, the 3
different steps did not help. I tried all three with no success -
Also, I know get an additional thing that pops up when the machine is
first turned on:

Open With - message
Click the program you want to us to open the file ADVPACK.DLL - what is
this file? And what does it do? How to I get this corrected so it
doesn't pop up anymore? What I've been doing is canceling the message.

I have tried all of the suggestions in Article
Q198374 in the MS knowledge database and none of
them work. I have even reinstalled Windows 95 to
try to solve it. That didn't work either! Anybody
have any ideas please?
