[QUOTE="Ctrl-Opt-Del, post: 1360610, member: 215112"] Don't worry, there's no chance of that happening. Your documents are completely separate files; Word only opens/edits/re-saves them, they're not part of the app like the progress save files on a game. If you're worried, just make back-up copies of your documents on a USB stick or external hard drive; then go ahead & reinstall. I'll just check one other thing; have you recently upgraded from OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard to 10.7 Lion? If so that may have been what messed it up; but Office:mac 2011 should work with Lion, so reinstalling Office should get it working again either way. [/QUOTE]
