error opening ms help in word

[Guest]

I can't get the help files in Word (Office XP). I was getting an error
message so I tried Detect & Repair and now I get nothing at all.

It would help if you could quote the error message exactly and
completely, because we can't see your screen from here. As a
guess, see http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=319956 "The Answer
Wizard and the Help Index tabs appear blank when you use Help in
an Office program".
