I am not worried that I am getting an error that refers to something that is 
untrue, i am getting an error that refers to something that is tre. I set my 
email editor to be WORD, but, voila, when i get an error message that word is 
unavailble(either it is not installed, or is not the correct version)
neither of these is true. I DO have it installed, and it IS the ocrrect version.
When I go to word itself, it tells me that the wpord is not registered blahb 
lah...when i open up word documents that I made pre-mess, i cannot clock on the 
links and have them do anything.

When I click on access, i get a major run-a round. 
I have detected andrepaired both outlook and word several or more times.
I have uninstalledand reinstialled OFFICE twice.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled all the u pdates.

i am unable to use word as my email editor and I want to use word as my email 
editor.
If i didn;t want to use word as my email editor, i would have unchecked it and 
not gotten the error message. The reason that i haveit checked is because i 
WANT TO USE word.......lol....llit is seeming to be impossible without a full 
wipe of the opeerating system.
I am more than frustrated at this point.

TRY THIS

A few things you can check - in OUTLOOK, you have the option of using WORD as 
your email editor, or Outlook itself. From what it sounds like, you may have it 
set to the first one. Start OUTLOOK, and goto TOOLS => OPTIONS => MAIL FORMAT 
and uncheck "Use Microsoft Word as your email editor". See if that makes a 
difference.

also do you have Symantec installed??

See the Microsoft Knowledge Base articles, You cannot use Word as your e-mail 
editor when Symantec Norton AntiVirus is installed on your computer and 
Outlook/WordMail Tries to Use Word Viewer as Editor.

and 

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=166050

Outlook/WordMail Tries to Use Word Viewer as Editor

or

Try this. Open My Computer and go to Tools > Folder Options and click on the 
File Types tab. Click on (NONE) URL:MailTo Protocol > Advanced. Make sure that 
open is selected and click on Edit. Where it say's "Application used to perform 
action" paste the below string.

C:\PROGRA~1\MICROS~2\Office10\OUTLOOK.EXE" -c IPM.Note /m "%1"

and click OK. Reboot and let us know if this helped.

Last suggestion edit HotKeys

upgrading; however, a file-level view of the Outlook folder in C:\\Program 
Files may indicate an "Office 10" and an "OFFICE 11," so assuming that it was 
upgraded at some point (I don't recall specifically simply because XP routinely 
asks me to upgrade MS programs on my computer!). However, the registry edit 
link you provided does not include deletion instructions for Office 10, only 8 
and 9.

Update: OK, this is getting very not-funny. I did everything it said, including 
the necessary backups. I deleted the Office/8 and Office/9 keys in LOCAL 
MACHINE and CURRENT USER. I did a reboot and fired up Outlook again. Same 
problem.

Alternatively do a restore point to a date prior when your systerm worked ok

Hope these help

Mike
