error in outlook

[Jo Lambrecht]

Hi,

I"ve been working for months now on my system (Win XP SP2 and Office 2003
Enterprise edit.) After installing the latest version of the NERO cdrom
software (version 7), i get the follwing error in my Outlook2003, when i
want to send an email.(Outlook starts fine, but when you choose "new mail")
Microsoft Word is set to be your email editor. However Word is unavailable,
not installed, or is not the same version as Outlook. The Outlook email
editor will be used instead. An OLE registration error occurred. The program
is not currently installed. Run setup again for the program.
In the Office setup, choosing the repair option didn't fix the problem,
choosing reinstall didn't fix it either.

What could be the problem ?


Regards,
Jo Lambrecht

After a long time of searching, i posted this message.
Murphy's law says : if posting a problem after hours of searching, 10
minutes after that you will find the solution.

This is the solution to the problem :
This behavior occurs if the Ole32.dll file that is located in the
%Windir%\System32 folder is not registered correctly in the registry.
Back to the top
To resolve this problem, register the Ole32.dll file. Click Start, click
Run, type the following command in the Open box, and then click OK:
Regsvr32.exe %Windir%\System32\Ole32.dll


Regards,
Jo
