is there a way to stop office from disabling other programs or macros that
are running on the computer. It has happened to me with word and outlook.

Not enough information. I have no problems, could you please elaborate
exactly what's going on. The operating system and Office version would be a
good place to start, as would the verbatim text of any errors.

Sorry about that i am runnung windows 2000 with office 2003. All the updates
are installed on both. The issue is that it keeps shutting down other
programs running in the background there are no error messages. These
programs that office is shutting down all have macros that you can use with
office. What happens is you can have both open like for example acrobat 6 and
word you can use the pdf maker macro a couple of times but then all of a
sudden no error messages it just wont work and it wont even have the icon on
the toolbar i will have to go into the help menu, then to about office and
disabled items and sure enough there it is in the case of acrobat i cannot
even enable the program it just dosent work any more. But all the other ones
it will allow me to enable them and they work again.
