Hello All, I am after some assistance with setting printers to ACTIVEPRINTER property, in macro's or word objects. It seems to take a long time. Is this normal??? Can anyone offer any advice? Thx In Advance

Thank you for all your suggestions.

There are bout 60,000 word doc's approximately. That would take quite alot of time to do. The issue is when I shut down the old file server, that word 2003 sp3 starts to limbo. But when the old file server is up, there's no issue. Would this mean there is server info kept with the older word doc's????

Hi All, I have come across a peculiar issue at work accessing some old word documents kept on an old file server, which is required to be decommisioned. These documents were created with word 5.0 I believe. Now the issue was brought to my attention after moving these files to a new file server, which at the time created no issues. However; upon shutting down the old file server, when our users tried to access some of these older files, word would just go into a limbo type state. No error msg's or anything and wouldn't open the files. After realising this the old server was powered back up and then when users went to open those same files, word opened them without any issues. Can anyone help with this weird and vague problem. Cheers, Jason
