Problem with WP X3 and Vista and Outlook 2007

Hi! We have a peculiar problem here. We have Word Perfect X3 (all the latest
patches installed) running on two Vista machines which also have Outlook
2007 installed as part of the MS Office 2007 Regular. The MS software
and OS also have all their patches installed.

The problem is if Outlook is running WP X3 loads just fine. But if you
attempt to open or close a document Word Perfect crashes. Not each
and every time but at least half of the time. Word Perfect X3 runs just
fine as long as Outlook 2007 is not running. You can get a crash to
happen every time if you attempt to load multiple documents
simultaneously. X3 will sometimes work if only one document is
open with Outlook running.. It does this on both machines so the
problem is likely universal.

When running on Windows XP Pro this did not happen so it seems
to be associated with Vista.

I put a question into Corel's tech support, but the the suggestions they
gave strongly suggests that they do not know what the answer is.

You may need to escalate with Corel or it may be useful to post in their
newsgroup:
cnews.corel.com

You might also want to post in one of the Outlook newsgroups because
lots of people use Word Perfect and Outlook. This may be something the
Outlook gurus have seen.

Here's the Outlook general group: microsoft.public.outlook.general

And here's a list of all the MS public newsgroups in case there is a
more specific Outlook group that would fit the problem better:

Thanks for the reply. I have already put in a further update with
Corel and put the same question on their newsgroup.

I will be putting this same question to the Outlook group.

Thanks again!

Ever find a solution for this?

WordPerfect has been crashing every time someone tries to close a
document in Vista Business 32-bit with Outlook 2007 open.

(It seems to be only when the document is opened and changed, and
File>Close is selected)

I am running SP2, in fact I'm running fully patched versions of both
Outlook 2007 and WordPerfect X3.

It appears to happen on all Vista Business installations (both
Dell-made boxes and Retail installs of Vista). I've submitted the Bug
to Corel, as well.

This post was the only reference to the same problem I could find, so I
figured I'd ask

This one drives me crazy. While I've learned to save constantly,
still lose stuff in WP because of this crashing problem. I use WP al
the time, and like Outlook because I can copy/paste address informatio
from Contacts for some special projects that require that rather than
merge. If I could do that in Mozilla Thunderbird, I would never us
Outlook again

If someone gets a solution, please post it with loud bells an
whistles

Sorry, I guess the thread didn't really say. WP X3 is the lates
version of Word Perfect. Those of us who use it usually prefer it ove
MS Word, but it appears that Vista doesn't like it... it keeps trying t
turn it off
