Error message when trying to use Word

Well I was having problems with word and crashing. Every time I would open
word it would crash on me, so I decided to do a repair after the repair i
recieved this error message: "Microsoft Word has not been installed for the
current user. Please run setup to install the application." I then tried a
reinstall, got the same message. I then did a fresh install by uninstalling
office but to no avail, still got the error messge. I came to microsoft.com
and tried to a help page which I did find. I followed the instructions But
when it came to riight clicking and going to properties then going in the
"security tab" I discovered that there is no "security tab" listed so I can't
finish the instructions.

I also tried creating a new admin account to see if I could do it through
that. I found out that I could actually access word though the new admin
account with no problems.

So how can I go about fixing this problem? I don't want to reformat but I
may have to.
