Works 8.5 in Vista: "Microsoft Works has stopped working"

I frequently get this message, and finally MSN has added a page to how to
correct the problem. HOWEVER, I have followed the directions explicitly
twice, and both times am told it is done, but the same problem occurs again:
Works has stopped working. I have tried logging off, same result.
Very frustrating.--

You've asked two questions about using MS Works in Vista. While there is
always the possibility you'll get an answer in this Vista General
newsgroup, you have a better chance of getting expert help if you post
in the newsgroup for Works:

microsoft.public.works.win

That's where the Works experts hang out (and I'm afraid I'm not one so
can't answer either of your questions).
