Recent problems with Office 2010 and printing SIMS reports as 'Word List Report' issue. Problem occurs when running Word List Reports-Report will preview without an error. Running Word List Report will produce an output first time the report is run then gives an Error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. until the User logs out of SIMS and deletes "tempSimsRpt" folder in My Documents. Repairing Office, reinstalling on SIMS affected workstation and installing Microsoft Office 2010: Primary Interop Assemblies had no effect. The root cause of the problem in our case seems to be when the the location of Microsoft Word User Templates has been changed from the default The following Reg Key "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Common\General\UserTemplates" exists and has the value of the changed UserTemplates location. e.g "F:\Word_Templates" To Remedy: Deleted the above "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Common\General\UserTemplates" Reg Key Browsed to folder "F:\Word_Templates" (\\Server\Server_Share\Word_Templates), renamed "Normal.dotm" to "OldNormal.dotm" Word will then set the template location to the default location and recreate the "Normal.dotm". Windows XP: %userprofile%\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates\Normal.dotm Windows 7: userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates\Normal.dotm

I would recommend getting in touch with Will Townsend. He is looking for an experienced SIMS consultant, with T6, Exams and assessment knowledge, in the North West. Will has been involved with recruiting for SIMS support for many years and has been a great help to myself. Rob
