I have a new computer, Windows XP operating system and
Microsoft Office 2003 Home edition came installed on the
PC.

I configured Outlook to use MS Word as the email editor,
but it doesn't work. When I launch an email form to
compose a message I get an error message that MS Word can
not be found.

Please advise.

There appear to be a whole host of causes for this error message. Most have
no solution. Here are a few that do:
