Hi teaganbarlow and welcome to our forum,

Unfortunately you don't give us details of :

the version of Microsoft Word you are using

or your operating system,

or your computer

or what steps you have already taken to try and effect a repair,

so our reply has to be fairly general in nature. However you could start your research by having a look at the following sites that provide useful information.
