Q124070

------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Publisher, versions 2.0, 2.0a
 - Microsoft Publisher Special Occasions Design Pack
------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

When you use the Special Occasions Card PageWizard Design Assistant to
create a greeting card, you may receive the following error message:

   CELCARDS caused a General Protection Fault in module USER.EXE
   at 000B:01E2.

This message will occur immediately after the PageWizard imports a 
picture for the front of the card.

The Special Occasions Card PageWizard comes with Publisher 2.0, CD-ROM
edition, and with the Microsoft Publisher Special Occasion Design Pack.

CAUSE
=====

This message will occur if you choose to fill in your own greeting and 
you do not type anything, including a space character in the "Type a 
Greeting for The Front Of Your Card" box. 

STATUS
======

Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here 
in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

WORKAROUND
==========

To work around this problem, and leave the "Type a Greeting for The 
Front Of Your Card" box empty, press the SPACEBAR instead of pressing 
the BACKSPACE key. By replacing the existing text with a space 
character, you will avoid receiving the error message.
