The simplest solution that I have found that works is to turn off error
reporting, but this just fixes the symptoms, not why it is doing this in the
first place.

Doing a search on the MS web site didn't find any fixes for me that
worked. One of the suggestions was to find the error in the Event Veiwer, I
found a number of Errors and warnings (Quite a few) under System, none in
Security, 3 in MS Office Sessions, none in MS Office Diagnostics or IE and
quite a few errors and warnings in Application. What do I do with all this
information available to me and how does it relate to dwwin not initialising..

Thanks for your time.
