1060.0. "WordBasic Err=7" by CHEFS::16.37.12.96::roem () Wed May 07 1997 19:32

Sorry if there's already a topic covering this.

Any advice on the following problem?


	Consistently, when finishing editing an Exchange mail, exiting 
	Word and exiting Exchange, I get a pop-up window with the message 

			WordBasic Err=7
			! Out of memory.

and I'm left with an empty Word window to close down. This is unrelated to 
what applications I've got running, and I have 32Mb memory so it's not a 
*real* out of memory problem....

Thanks,
Mike

    Mike,
    
    When you do find an answer, please post it here.
    
    I am now getting the same error, but I also get it when I go into Word
    directly, without Exchange, so I had not considered it to be related to
    Exchange.

    In my case, this turned out to be caused by a macro left in Word by the
    Word Concept virus!
    
    Here's how I fixed it, with Microsoft's phone support:
    NOTE: this only works if you do not have anything customized in your
    Normal.dot template.
    
    In Word: 
    	Go to Tools > Macro.  If there are any macros that you did not
    	create, called AutoStart or Auto-anything, delele them.
    
    	Close Word.
    
    Find Normal.Dot and rename it to Normal.old
    
    Reboot.  Restart word. 
    Word will create a new normal.dot
