I've been getting the following error message lately when I edit a previously
saved Word document. It also appears to be random since it does not appear
every time.

"The application or DLL C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft
Shared|Proff\MSSP3ES.DLL is not a valid Windows image. Please check this
against your installation diskette."

I cannot close this message (by clicking on the OK button) and need to close
the word document with the "End Now" button. It may be coincinetal, but I've
also recently installed Internet Explorer 7.

It would help if I understood what the message is trying to tell me because
I don't want to just replace the 'MSSP3ES.DLL' with another copy. If I have
to, would this file be found on my Office XP installation diskette, which I
have? Would this copy be the appropriate one or should I download a more
recent version (if available)?

I'm running MS Windows XP Home edition - SP2; Office XP - WORD2002 SP3.

Thanks in advance.

You have wandered into the Macintosh Office Word Group. There are a few
people here who are AC/DC, but you would probably get better advice in
the general Word newsgroup. Unless of course, you need sympathy. We do
sympathy really, really well.
