I just installed Office Professional Plus 2007 on Windows Server 2003 R2 (64-bit, SP2), and found that the programs are unable to display any of the standard file dialogs, unless I first open the print dialog. This means that I can't open, save as, or insert from inside any Office apps without that extra step. I've uninstalled, reinstalled, rebooted, started Word in Safe Mode (with Ctrl held down), and changed my default printer, all to no avail. In other words:
1. Start Office 2007 app
2. Select Open, Save As, Insert, ...
3. App hangs
1. Start Office 2007 app
2. Select Print and cancel
3. Select Open, Save As, Insert, ...
4. Everything works beautifully
Kind of a peculiar problem to describe, but any thoughts or suggestions would be much appreciated.
