While running MS Word 2000 the Help Dialog Box keeps popping up without being prompted.
Can you give me any insite on how to stop this dialog box from displaying? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks,

When the office (help)assistant is up click on options.

If options is not available then right click on the office assistant and choose options.

Uncheck the box for 'Guess help topics'.

See if this works.

If the problem continues then you can always uncheck the box for 'use office assistant'.
You will still be able to use the help section, but the office assistant will not come up.

Good Luck!

Right-click on office assistant and then choose 'hide'. When you do this a couple of times, Office Assistant will ask you if you want to permenantly turn it off to which you can answer 'yes' if you want to. Then whenever you ask for help, you'll getthe regural help dialog without an animated assistant. Hope this helps.
