The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Cannot open Word doc.  Error:  document name or path is not valid

Asked by andytagonist in Microsoft Office Suite, Microsoft Applications

Tags: , , ,

i asked this question in a directly related thread without noticing it was closed and most likely not to be viewed by anyone ever again, so i'll ask it in my own qustion.  btw, the solution listed in that other thread with the remarkably similar name did NOT work for me.

anyhow, here we are:
i'm running winXP sp3, word XP fully updated, etc...etc...etc...
the document we can not open was NOT received via email as with some other people.  it was created by the girl on her work laptop with a stock ghost image we use, so i know there's nothing kooky on her system that's not on mine--this happens on both of our computers btw, so that elimates a lot of things.  it does open in wordpad, but she had formatting on it that wordpad loses, so she'd rather not use that route.  going into word and doing file, open does not work either.
temp files have been cleared (but that's most likely moot since it happens on a sales girl's machine and an IT guy's machine--we don't run in the same circles of documents and websites), office and winXP are both current as far as updates, this is not a virus--nor a naming issue (the file is called "manual.doc").
anyone have any suggestions?  i saw a suggestion somewhere that this may be a "smart tags" issue within the document...anyone care to comment or maybe provide some insight and perhaps a solution?
