I have a laptop that is on Vista 64 and a desktop that is on Vista 32 bit. Both have Office Word 2007 and when I make a document on my laptop I can save it and it will work OK. On my desktop I can make a document and it will work OK. Here is my problem I have a document on my laptop and I put it on my USB drive and plug my USB drive into my desktop and open the file it is blank. On my laptop I put the file on my USB drive and it will open there but as soon as I open it on my desktop the file is blank. So I copyed and pasted it into Notepad and tryed the same thing and the file is blank? The other thing is when I put the usb drive back into my laptop after trying to open the files on my desktop my laptop shows the files as blank to.
All i'm trying to do is print the documet file off my laptop.

Hi Marty, Welcome to the Forum

After you copy to the USB drive, Do you just unplug it or do you safely remove the device?

Yes the safe to remove device is in the bottom right hand corner. I ended up trying another usb drive and it worked ok from one computer to the other. So it looks like its the usb drive and not the computers. I will try formating the usb drive and try again.
