Larry As I'm sure you have seen by now Dan Duchardt searched for the br_svrc file on his 98 and word installation. It must have originated from some other program. It's questionable whether a reinstall of word or 98 will do any good. Here's a couple of standard things to try. Empty everything in your c/windows/Temp folder. Some strange things happen if too much garbage accumulates in this folder. The already posted idea by BK about stopping what is running and then trying to save a word document sounds worth a try as well. You can expand that idea and go to start/run and type in msconfig and go to startup tab and after noting (write it down) everything that has a checkmark in the box left of the names, click in the boxes and clear all but explorer and systray. Restart and then try word again. If that is successful you can put the checkmarks back in one at a time and reboot until the offending program is identified. Most of these programs do not need to be loaded on startup anyway and drag your resources down. Finally, skip dinner tonight and use the bucks to buy some ram for that poor machine. It's dying of hunger. tc :-)
