When jaguar came out i installed it clean on a different HD and moved over all my programs and databases etc. Everythign worked except office. Now anytime i launch word or entourage it hangs for 20 seconds and gives me the beachball. then it stops acting up and works. anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
thanks

DOS Computers manufactured by companies such as IBM, Compaq, Tandy, and millions of others are by far the most popular, with about 70 million machines in use worldwide. Macintosh fans, on the other hand, may note that cockroaches are far more numerous than humans, and that numbers alone do not denote a higher life form. -- New York Times, November 26, 1991

You've installed the Office 10.1.2 combined updater ,
or at least the Office v.X SR-1 update?
Are you runnign a firewall that might block Office from connecting to port 2222 ? (It makes a network check for other uses of the same license key.)

Office v.X is Drag & Drop though, as long as the items are all in the same folder you should be able to drag it around, no? It will launch the First Run/Autorepair program to reinstall the frameworks and fix stuff up. That's only if you kept the original folder structure though, and didn't do something like drag just Word.app out to another disk. That would break it.
