Description of the Word 2010 hotfix package (Word-x-none.msp): August 30, 2011

Issue that this hotfix package fixes

• You view two email messages in Print Preview in Microsoft Outlook 2010. When you print the two email messages, the inline attachment from one of the email messages may appear in the other email message.
  

• Consider the following scenario:

  • You have a Word document that contains an ActiveX control in the graphics layer.

  • Design Mode is turned off.

  • You check the grammar and spelling in the Word document.

  In this scenario, Word 2010 always displays the same suggestions and inserts the suggested word at the beginning of the document when you click Change in the Spelling and Grammar dialog box.
  

• When a dialog box is open in a Word document, you cannot open another Word document in Word 2010. Additionally, when you try to open Word from the taskbar, you receive the following message:

  The command cannot be performed because a dialog box is open. Click OK, and then close open dialog boxes to continue.
  

• Consider the following scenario:

  • You open a Word 97-2003 Document (*.doc) in Word 2010.

  • You have a macro that uses Range.FormattedText property in the header or footer of the document.

  • The header or footer has a Microsoft Office drawing shape.

  • The header is not linked to the previous section.

  • You run the macro.

  In this scenario, you receive the following error message:
  

  Run-time error '5097': Word has encountered a problem.

  
  

• When you open certain attached .msg files, Microsoft Outlook 2010 crashes.
  

• Consider the following scenario:

  • You create a Rich Text Format (RTF) email message in Microsoft Office Outlook 2003.

  • You insert an attachment.

  • You turn on Information Rights Management (IRM).

  • You send the email message to an Outlook 2010 user.

  In this scenario, the attachment is not displayed in Outlook 2010.
  

• Assume that you enable the Ignore original message text in reply or forward option and the Check grammar with spelling option in Outlook 2010. However, when you check the spelling when you forward or reply to an email message, the grammar checker still scans the original email message.
  

• When read-only users open a second Word 2010 document in a Microsoft SharePoint document library, the template is incorrect.
