I have an issue with the "find" window not opening. It seems to be only
affecting one computer on xp. As the find function works on that document if
I edit on another PC. I have already tried deleting the normal.dotm file. It
worked once then back to same issue. When I select ctrl + f or actually click
on the find button on the home tab, word seems to gray out as if the find
window is open somewhere, but I can find it. This is completely frustrating.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
If you start Word in Safe mode, then does it work? To start in Safe mode,
hold Ctrl as you run Word.

If Safe mode helps, exiting Word and deleting the Data key in the registry
would be worth trying. You might even try deleting the entire Word key.
