I was helping a friend with this problem, and was able to recreate it on my PC as well. When in the open dialog and clicking on the drop down arrow the program will lock up. A few clicks around the screen will cause the program to stop responding.
After about ten seconds or so the application will continue on my PC, but not on my friend's. It will stay locked up indefinitely.
I thought maybe it was a network drive or a bad hard drive or CD-ROM causing explorer to go crazy trying to figure out what the device was but there are no discs in the drives or mapped network drives.
At any rate, I was hoping someone else had heard of this problem and had a fix! Thanks.
Word/Excel 2002 locks when in the "Open" dialog.
