SQL message?
Using Word 2002.
When I open a Word attachment from Outlook Express 6 I get a warning popup: "Opening this document will run the following SQL command: (Followed by a exclamation yellow triangle and no text) Data from your database will be placed in the document. Do you want to continue?" If I reply "no", the document still opens normally. What is this SQL question about? I do not recall seeing it before the recent couple of weeks. Jeff |

SQL message?
If this happens when you start Word (by opening the attachment, for
example), the likelihood is that it is caused by some obscure change made by the latest round of Office updates. In my case, the message was triggered by the TaskPaneController add-in (which can be removed from Word's Startup folder without damage), but in your case it might be some other add-in that is disagreeing with Word. -- Suzanne S.

Thank you Suzanne. It did start after the latest Office update.
Is "TaskPaneController.dot" the file to delete? Jeff Suzanne S.

If you have that add-in in your Word Startup folder, then, yes, you can
delete (or move) that file. My understanding is that the add-in does its job at the outset by modifying the Registry, and once it has done that, you don't need to load it every time you start Word.

No, the update didn't install the add-in; it just changed something that
resulted in a conflict with that add-in if it was already installed. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA " wrote in message ...

I see. I do not recall installing that add-in (though I may have) which is
why I thought the update added it. What does that add-in actually do? What am I giving up when I removed it? Thanks. Jeff Suzanne S.

Its purpose is to either enable or disable the Task Pane from popping up
unannounced. In other words, it gives YOU the choice of whether you want to see the Task Pane when you open Word. I personally loved the Task Pane in Word 2003 and used the utility to keep it open all the time. But I am in the minority and most users use it to disable the Task Pane because they hate it.
