Office Viewer Component

Running Word 2003 sp3. Word displays this error on any save or save as. It doesn’t matter if the save was issued via the OCX, automation, or in a macro. But word can save the save file to the same place when it is run on the desktop. I have checked all the forum/web solutions. The filename is 8.3. It is not a network drive or share. It is not a novel network. Norton is not installed. It is not a removable device. How can I get over this problem?

An ActiveX control is an application that can run inside Internet Explorer. When an ActiveX control is signed, it indicates that the control was produced by the signer and has not been altered. EDraw Office Viewer Component is signed by EDrawSoft, and you will not be prompted to install an unsigned control or a control signed by anyone else while using EDraw Component.

By default, Internet Explorer allows signed ActiveX controls to run and you should be prompted to install the EDraw signed ActiveX control. If you have changed your Internet Explorer Security Settings, take the follow steps to ensure that you are able to install the EDraw Office Viewer ActiveX Control:

1. Select Tools, then Internet Options from the menu at the top of the Internet Explorer window. The Internet Options section will appear.
2. Select Security from the list of tabs at the top of the Internet Options window. The Security section will appear.
3. Select the Custom Level button. The Security Settings window will appear.
4. Scroll down to the Download signed ActiveX controls entry and select the prompt radio button.
5. Scroll down to the Run ActiveX controls and plugins entry and select the enabled radio button.
6. Select the OK button to accept the changes.
7. You will now be prompted to accept signed ActiveX controls from websites that you visit.
