872.0. "WORD locks up the PC." by TNPUBS::MARK () Fri Apr 04 1997 15:20

    I am using MSOFFICE 95 on a WIN95 DECpc 466D2 MTE. I can print from all
    Office applications (EXCEL, POWERPOINT) with no problem, yet when I try
    and print from within WORD, the whole PC hangs. I cannot do anything
    with my cursor and the job never makes it to the printer. If I
    CTR-ALT-DEL the window box comes up and says "WORD - not responding.",
    and then I "End Task" and the PC clears up. This only happens in WORD,
    even app's like Notepad, WRITE, they all work fine, as do the other MS
    OFFICE app's.
    
    Any ideas?

Sounds like a problem with your Word installation.  Have you tried
re-installing Word?
