can't save documents in Office 2007, but could in 2003

I was successfully running Office 2003 under Vista business. Then I upgraed
to Office 2007 and it ran fine for some weeks. Then suddenly I couldn't save
any new documents. It would open an empty file screeen and hang. I tried
repairing, deleting and reinstalling Office 2007, chkdsk. and even cleaning
the registry after deleting and reinstalling, but still no saving. I removed
Office 2007 and reinstalled 2003 and it works fine. I really want to run
2007. Other than reformatting and starting over, any suggestions???

Thanks

Did you activate the installation of Office '07? If not it won't let you
save any new or changed files.

It says it is activated. I just reinstalled 2007 and when I try to save it
totally hangs. Back to 2003 again. Argh!

Thanks for the suggestion.
