Getting the following error : C:\program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\WINWORD.EXE The application has Failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see application event log for more detail. I am running windows Vista and I cant locate the log that is mentioned and I cant get word to start can anyone help

I would ask this in the Office or Vista Forums. This is for Exchange.

Thank you for your reply I am not able to locate the two forums that you suggest. Again Microsoft makes sure that their site is NOT user friendly. Respectfully chiefelf

Again Microsoft makes sure that their site is NOT user friendly. Hmmm. I typed "word" into "Search Forums" and found "Microsoft Office" (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-us/category/officeitpro) and "Word IT Pro Discussions" (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-us/word/threads). That's pretty friendly, but it's not idiot-proof. --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP
