Here it wasn't a delay, it's just that I've been away for vacation.

Btw, I would try to change and maybe later again reset the location for 
'user-options' !

And - what Alan meant was not exactly a 'repair installation', but rather 
the 'repair' function in Word, from under the Help menue. It's easy to use, 
but might ask for the CDs.

Tschüs
Tilman
