Yes, WandS has it right as well. Looks like you have to disable the MS
Office start up virus scan feature in Norton Anti Virus (uncheck the box
under Options - Norton Anti Virus - Miscellaneous - Turn on Office Plug-in
on) restart the computer and then the documents open. Fun huh?

Hello all,
Up until a couple of hours ago- everything worked great- using the beta 2007
ms office. I just updated the beta version with the Beta2 teachnical
refresh- & I can't open any excel files or word files- not one! the error
says that there is a conflict with my anti -virus program & that the file is
corrupted, so I disabled the anti-virus program& tried to open them again-
same problem- every single file effected. Has anyone else encountered this
problem? Any solutions?
...Alistair

So, as anyone found a solution to this problem, cause obviously I am
suffering the same dilema?
