MS Word problem
When I open my MS Word program I get a message-"The function you are attempting to run contains macros or content that requires macros language support. When this software was installed,you chose not to install support for macros or controls."
There is a button labled "show help" which when I click on it a help dialog appears. Unfortunately I cannot seem to execute the commands detailed there in. Is unloading and then reloading a solution or is there a way to avoid this step??
TIA

Thanks very much. Uninstalled and reinstalled and now back to normal. But the articles you mentioned are useful for they specify the cause of this problem.
