Office Button in office 2007 does not work

[Lee Batson]

I have installed office 2007 on an windows XP Pro SP2 PC. Most of pr0gram
works fine. However, when I click on the office button in the upper right, it
does not respond. I can right click and get some info. I can add commands to
the shortcut bar. I just cannot use Office Button in Word, Excel etc. No
other version of office has been on this PC.

Don't know what you're clicking on, but it's not the Office button,
because the Office button is in the upper left corner.

Details details! Sorry.. I meant upper left.. I am definately clicking on
office button. Does not work. Will close app if I double click though.

Start Word 2007, press Alt+T,O (which should open the Word Options
dialog), and click on Resources | Diagnose.

Comes up with no problems. I removed office 2007 and reinstalled. No change.
The &$&*(#$&*@# Office button still does not work!!! Oh well..

Hi Adrien,

Can you use Alt,F to open the Office button in Word? If so can you also open it with the mouse if you hold down the ctrl key when
starting Word?

If so, there may be an add-in interfering. You may also want to check for an updated mouse driver.
