Suzanne, I went ahead and reinstalled Office 2007 but that did not solve
the problem. I expected to see Repair on the opening SetUp screen from the
installation disk but it wasn't there. I then went to Control Panel (or
what used to be called Control Panel) \ Programs and Features and clicked on
MS Office. At first I do not believe there was a Repair offered but I chose
Change and then was offered Repair. I 'Repaired' Office and now everything
seems to be just fine.
Thanks for your fast reply! DH
