I have microsoft office on my mac. I know, why right? Well most of the programs used at my school are based on office.

Anyways my problem is that whenever I start my computer Word automatically starts. This is very annoying because I have to close it everytime I start the computer. Also this just started happening last week and I dont know why? Any of you experts out there have any ideas? I have already looked into preferences and had no luck at all! Please help!!

do yopu have word in the dock? if so, try to control click on the word icon, and see if the 'open at login' option is checked... also, what is present in your login items, in system preferences > accounts > your user > startup items?

Yes! thankyou very much! I had to ctrl click on word in the dock and had to uncheck the open at login. Its funny that it wasnt in preferences, I never considered trying that! Thanks alot for your help!
