Microsoft Office 2000 supports AntiVirus plug-ins that can scan Microsoft Office documents before they are opened. When the Norton AntiVirus plug-in is enabled on a system that is running Word 2000, you receive one of the messages that is included in the "Symptoms" section when you try to start Word through Automation.

RESOLUTION

To resolve the issue, contact your antivirus software vendor to obtain either an updated version of their product or assistance with reconfiguration of their product. For more information about the Norton AntiVirus Office plug-in, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

In some cases, you may need to rename the oleaut32.dll and reinstall Office 2000. To rename oleaut32.dll, it is usually necessary to restart the computer in MS-DOS mode because the Operating System may have the file locked.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a bug in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.
