Hi folks. MS Word was taking a long time -- like 50-60 seconds -- to open a document after double-clicking in Explorer. I found that deselecting "Use DDE" in Windows' File Types made the problem go away. Other information I've found suggests there may be a process on my machine with an open message queue that's not being serviced, causing DDE operations to hang until the request times out. Does anyone here know how I could ID the offending process? (Alternate theories are welcome too.) Thanks, DJV
