What are the main causes of a segmentation fault? Any idea about this one?

I have been running word perfect 8 since its introduction many months ago.
Today, while coverting a Word file someone sent me it hung.  No biggie,
killed the process, and restarted it.  It starts to restart, the splash
screen opens, and the blank document screen opens for a millisecond.  

The screen output becomes 'Segmentation fault'

% ps auxwww|grep word
jwg      17830  0.0  1.1   532  684  pe  S     5:20PM    0:00.01
~/wordperfect/shbin10/wpexc
[2]  - Segmentation fault     ~/wordperfect/wpbin/xwp

Looked in /tmp but cannot find anything of interest.
