Express Error Message

When I try to send this message appears: "Microsoft Word-Interface not
registered". When I try to forward a message, this error message
appears:"Microsoft Word is set to be your e-mail editor. However, Microsoft
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 correctly installed. Run Setup program again
for the program."

What do I need to do & how?

[[OE Why can't I set OE as the default email client?
Why can't I Reply to Author in newsgroups?
Why do I see a Choose Profile window when I Reply to Author in newsgroups?

All of these problems indicate that OE is not properly configured as the
default email client on your computer. To be sure OE is the default mail
client, close OE, click Start | Run and
enter this command line, complete with quotes, spaces and the /reg switch:

"C:\Program Files\Outlook Express\msimn.exe" /reg

Of course change the path if you installed OE elsewhere.

Now click Start | Settings | Control Panel, double-click Internet Options,
then click on the Programs tab, and verify that OE is now the default email
client. (You can also get there from the IE Tools | Internet Options menu).
Then open OE and click Tools | Options, and at the bottom of the General
tab, verify that OE is set as the default. If it is, the "Make Default"
button will be grayed out. If not, click the button.]]
