cannot fax from Panther with Word

[raidl]

I cannot fax a document from Word from OSX Panther. I just get a
"dinging" sound. When I try to open the address book I can't select an
address book. I can't even close the address book again. It keeps
"dinging" regardless what I try to do.

However, finally when I put a fax number in manually, I was able to
fax the Word document under Panther. It has something to do with the
link to the address book!

All this works fine with TextEdit. It is purely a problem with
Microsoft Word. This problem was posted in January. I have update
version 10.1.4 installed.

Has anyone fixed this?

Has anyone looked at these messages? Has anyone solved this problem???

It's a Panther bug - see this Apple KB article.
