Sis has been trying to d/load a .doc from her Gmail account. Every time we try and open it, Word 2007 goes into spasm and locks, giving up a spinning circle, which goes nowhere. Tried d/ling the latest service pack for it, which is apparently already installed. All the other updates are what they should be. Any pointers chaps? |

All files. Excel/P.point don't seem to be affected. Also, after trying to do the update, I tried to reopen Word. The app went into a 'Configuring Office' dialogue, which was still there after some 40 minutes. So I've killed it and I'm restarting the machine. Again. |

Can you/have you tried forwarding the attachment to a non-Gmail address and trying it from there? Have you tried saving the file rather than opening it? |

Yup, tried it from her hotmail account as well, and we're opening it from the saved copy on her laptop. She's given in and is using my Dad's Mac now - it's downloaded from Gmail, opened and printed fine on that, which makes me think it's her Office install that's at fault. |
