Sounds good.
Signing off.
Ok golden039, lets see if we can't resolve this once and for all :)
you have wasted too much of your time and anyone elses who has cared to help. it is time to start from the beginning, so here goes.
Jump about and whoop! because with any luck your problem should now be solved and your file associations fixed
- COMPLETELY uninstall Office DO NOT REPAIR INSTALL
- reboot
- Download the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility
- in Search programs and files type Windows Install Cleanup and click on it
- Scroll down and select and Remove one at a time every Microsoft Office listing
- reboot
- Reinstall your Microsoft Office Product
I don't know if this is related to your problem but "by installing the MS Office Compatibility Pack in addition to Microsoft Office 2000, Office XP, or Office 2003, you will be able to open, edit, and save files using the file formats new to Word, Excel, and PowerPoint 2007. The Compatibility Pack can also be used in conjunction with the Microsoft Office Word Viewer 2003, Excel Viewer 2003, and PowerPoint Viewer 2003 to view files saved in these new formats."

When I get my Office 2007 in the mail in a couple of days I will do just what you suggest. Right now I'm using a trial.

Ye, well for now just follow my link for the Compatibility Pack, that will put you on for now.
It would be very helpful if you DIDN'T post this issue in two different posts. This post sould be closed / or linked to the other one which is "Word doesn't work" posted in the same Software forum.
It would be VERY helpful if you didn't post the same problem in two different posts in the same Software forum. People are trying to help you and it makes it very hard for others with the same problem to get to the solution if you just jump to a new posting part way through trying to solve an issue. For those wondering what I am talking about see "Microsoft Word 2007" in this same "Software" forum.
Thanks for attempting to help him Antman, hope you are successful.
