Anyone using WOPR 2003 in Office 2003?

When I got my new computer with Vista Home Premium 64 bit and SP1, I had to re-install Office 2003.

I am a long-time use of WOPR 2003 but when I loaded it under Vista, I got error messages from Word 2003. Here's the first message:

Compile error in hidden module: frmStatusScreen.

When I close the window, I get the WOPR document (which has the macros ready to load) open. When I try to load WOPR from WOPR Commander, I get this message:

procedure 'frmWOPRCmdr.fintInstall AddIn()' in Microsoft Word encountered Error #5180 - Word cannot open this document template.

WOPR 2003 was written for Word 2003, so it should be compatible....unless it has something to do with how Vista handles AddIns (templates, macros, etc) for Word.


Any ideas?

Not sure what you mean....

"Uninstall"....... uninstall what? WOPR, Office or both?

"Move the Office folder from Program Files"...to where? Or do you mean to delete the Office folder?



Are you saying this problem is because they Office 2003 installation is corrupt?


Thanks for the clarifications.
