OLE registration error - Outlook 2000

Running Office 2000 Premium on Win 98.
Outlook stopped working and suggested re-install.
In this this order, I have
1. fix from maintenance menu
2. reinstall from maintenance menu
3. remove and install from setup menu

I continue to receive the following error:
"An OLE registration error occurred. The program is not
correctly installed. Run setup again for the program."
