The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Works Suite 2000

This article was previously published under Q239301

SYMPTOMS

When you use Microsoft Word 2000 in Microsoft Works Suite 2000, you may experience either of the following symptoms:

  • When you save a Word 2000 document, the document does not appear on the History tab of the Works 2000 Task Launcher.

  • When you save a Word 2000 template, the template does not appear in the list of Personal Templates on the Tasks tab of the Works 2000 Task Launcher.

CAUSE

This behavior can occur because Word 2000 does not report the action of saving a document or a template to the Works Task Launcher until you quit Word or start a second instance of Word.

RESOLUTION

To work around this issue, quit Word 2000 (or start a second instance of Word 2000), and then start or switch to the Works Task Launcher.

The saved Word 2000 document or template now appears on the appropriate tab of the Works Task Launcher.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft Works Suite 2000.
