Please mark Yes/No as to whether a Reply answers your question. Microsoft office 2004 for mac 10.6 8 update.

The only suggestion I can make is to revert to something prior to Feb 1 if you use Time Machine or have a backup of some sort.Regards,Bob J.AI: Artificial Intelligence or Automated Idiocy???

If Method 1 did not resolve the problem, try Method 2.
