Cannot create new items in Outlook (or Word, ...)

D

Dan Sumption

The "New" button in Outlook 2002 has just become greyed out, along
with a number of other items (including Tools->Customize and
Tools->Options)

I recently installed Adobe Acrobat 6, and tried to use this to create
and send a PDF from MS-Word. This got as far as popping up the email
message, but the "Send" button was greyed out.

I have tried rebooting Windows, uninstalling Acrobat, running "Detect
and Repair" in Outlook, all to no avail.

FYI, under the File->New menu, all items are greyed out other than
"Outlook Bar Shortcut".

The problem seems to have affected other Office applications as well -
I cannot create a new document in Word either.

Office has been working fine up until this point, for about 2 years.

Can anyone suggest what has happened and how I can fix it.
