Buffer overrun detected

I am running Vista Home Premium and Office 2003 and am using Hebrew and
English in Word, Excel, Outlook, Visio.

When I open certain documents in Word 2003, not all documents, but some
documents, I get an error message about a Buffer Overrun Detected. The
program must terminate etc.

Is there any way to fix this problem

Not a Word question, but increase the amount of RAM that may be used
as the buffer? or add RAM to your computer?

Buffer overruns are nothing to do with memory availability.

I have seen occasional reports of this problem and it seems to have
something to do with proofing in some languages.

You could try repairing Office, or perhaps disabling (Hebrew) proofing.

It is a Word question because it occurs when Word is being used. It also has
nothing to do with the amount of RAM in the computer.

Can you easily remove the Hebrew to see if it's causing the issue? Probbly
not the cause but this is a good time to eliminate it from the possibilities
list.

1. Try XP compatability mode for office, or if no luck ...

2. Run the Word Repair wizard. Under Help IIRC.

If neither one helps, come back and include more information about your
system and a copy of the exact error message you get.
