This is a repost of something I put up a while back and got no response on a
few other
newsgroups (including microsoft.public.office.setup). Somebody suggested I
come here.

I have a problem with Office 2007 not responding when I come back from sleep
mode under Vista (Business edition). If I launch these programs after
returning from sleep mode they sometimes just hang. It unfortunately is not
consistent.
Sometimes they work OK more othen not. It seems to be a function of how long
Vista is in
sleep mode. It seems to require at least a few hours. They work perfectly
with a "normal" startup. If it hangs for one Office application (usually
Outlook) it hangs for the others as well. Interestingly if they hang,
FrontPage 2003 works fine.

If I try and cancel the program they hang. The top Window Caption bar says
"Not Responding". Ctrl+Alt+Del shows up as the tread "Not responding".
Using the "End tread" option takes a few minutes to close. Even if I try and
shut down Vista the whole thing takes 2 minutes. It does not seem to be an
Internet reconnect problem because I can use IE7 to get out fine.

I did not have this problem with Office 2003 on this exactly same hardware
hardware fefore I upgraded to Office 2007. No problem also with any other
program. It is clearly something in Office 2007 as it relates to Vista.

One person on another newsgroup said he saw a patch on a microsoft site for
something like this but could not remember where,

Please help. This is very frustrating.
