OLE Registration Error Occurred

[SAMK]

I have had a fully working Office 2003 using XP. When using Outlook my e-mail
editor is word. I am now getting a message that word is unavailable, not
installed or not from the same version as outlook. When I tried to uninstall
and then reinstall word using Add/Remove Programs, It wouldn't let me. I then
tried the same thing using the installation disk and got the same result.
Next I tried to uninstall Office using the same techniques as when trying to
uninstall Outlook and no joy. Individually Word, Excel. Power Point etc all
are still working. All help will be appreciated.

Thanks SAMK

Start->run, type "regsvr32.exe ole32.dll" and press okay. This should reregister the object and get rid of the error message.
