MS Word opens twice

[Oldmanlat]

Hi.
I'm using MS Office Home and Student 2007 with XP SP3.
Sometimes, not always, when I close a Word doc I get the following error pop-up.

"Microsoft Office Word has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the Inconvenience.
The information you were working on may be lost. Microsoft Office Word can try to recover it for you."

"Recover my work and restart Microsoft Office Word."
"Send Error Report - Don't Send"
I select "Don't Send: and it then opens a blank Word doc.
Help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I would grab the office/word CD start it up. Choose to repair or reinstall as was either from running setup from the CD or via AddRemove Programs.
