can not register this document

C

As long as I open a file, a window pops up and reads that " can not register
this document...". How can I register the opened document? I can not use the
function of fax, either.

Hello,

In performing some preliminary research, your issue may revolve around
object linking and embedding where the application needs to register your
file in order to copy and paste from/to the file. In order to better
identify the issue, please take a moment to address the below questions:
1) Does this occur in all Office applications or only Word?
2) Have the applications ever worked without receiving this error? If so,
what has changed (installs, updates, crash, etc).
3) Have you attempted to perform a "Detect and Repair..." from the Help
menu?

I also get this message now. I had changed a bunch of settings for services
- not sure what these are, but anything that dealt with other computers I
changed from Automatic to Manual. (I don't see why these should be running
on a laptop that never deals with other computers except on WWW.)

I also changed how long the startup options are displayed etc, possibly in
the same set of settings.

The message says something like "could not register this document. Links
cannot be created from other docs to this doc." Well I really don't want any
links!!

Haven't tried to use any other Office applications. Word does work fine
after hitting "OK."

thanks,
Susan
