I have this problem on both my machines. One uses Word
2000 (with XP as the OS) and the other has MS Office XP
(with 2000 server as the OS).

When I right click on a document in file manager and
say 'print'....I get an error message which says "Visual
Basic Error, Ambigious name detected: TMPdde." I only
have one printer installed on each machine and set as the
default. I get the same result if I use an auto printing
program. This problem just developed as it worked fine
before. Tried deleting and installing the printer again,
tried re-installing Word even re-installed the OS!!
Nothing seems to help.

However, if I open the document in Word, then select
File/Print it prints out fine.

Does anyone know how I can fix this?

thanks

See if the article below helps. It is an older article but it should still apply.

If this doesn't help you may want to post your issue in one of the MS Office newsgroups.
