Sir, I have office-2000 professional. the ms word software is giving problem. when i start the ms word, it's shows only a window containing a new file. but it's not shows any icon and menu bar (e.g file, edit....). to repair this i uninstall the office and reload it. but problem still occured. pl. help

Have u tried Tools>Customize option and checked whether the tool bars are 'ON'? Niko

nothing is viewed on the screen except window.

I had seen this same thing myself a few years ago but do not remember how I resolved it because I had tried many things. A couple of things you could try if you have not already: 1. Alt, V, N (that is the keyboard command for View, Normal) 2. Exit Word. Delete Normal.dot It will be rebuilt upon starting Word the next time. 3. Go to the shortcut you use to open MS Word, right click on the shortcut and select properties, In the Run box select Normal window. 4. Go to the shortcut you use to open MS Word, right click on the shortcut and select properties, in the Target box add a space, a hyphen and a letter n to the end of the target line so it appears like the following: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\winword.exe" -n This will start Word with no new document. Just Word will open and hopefully with the menus. Try each individually and then see if Word is working as desired, then try another. Bryan

Try something: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\word.exe" /unregserver and after that C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\word.exe" /regserver
