Hi all,

We are having issues at work and we can't get in touch with the lad responsible for IT.

We are having major issues with MS Office.

You can open excel spreadsheets is Excel 2007, however, as soon as you try to edit a cell it just stops responding or closes. Word won't open any documents at all, to even open Word properly you have to open one, then use FILE>NEW to get another but that doesn't last long.

Because I have admin access i've downloaded OpenOffice. It runs it's own spreadsheets fine, but if I try and open an excel spreadsheet on the server it stops responding. If I copy the spreadsheet to my HDD and try to open it then it starts too and then stops responding.

It's a problem we've had before but no idea how it was repaired.

Anyone any suggestions??
 
I know he installs everything remotely, never uses CDs :S

In either case, I can't understand why OpenOffice can't open an excel doc on my own PC.

It's really odd, we are all just sitting here unable to do 80% of our jobs :(
