MS Project 2000 Problem

J4Stock · #1 (**permalink**) 06-06-2006, 09:05 PM

I have MSProject 2000 installed on my laptop. When I try to open it, or try to open a file with it, it pops up for only a moment and then closes. No errors are displayed or anything. This is a very annoying problem that I would like to get fixed ASAP so that I can use this software. Can anybody help?

I posted a recent HyjackThis logfile today under a different thread in the spam-viruses forum if that helps any.

I doubt that this is a spyware related problem .... unless you have some form of virus that has tried to trash all of your Microsoft Office applications. I know that this will sound like a lame, effortless answer but, as you have no errors messages or anything to give any clue as to the cause of the problem, your best bet will be to go into the Add/Remove Programs list from the Windows Control Panel, select Microsoft Project from the list and choose the Repair option. This should restore working versions of any files that are currently corrupted and/or not correctly registered with Windows.

Let us know if that helps
