I was using Outlook w/o difficulty, but then I started getting this message
about editing e-mail with MS Word: Word Busy or Cannot be found... how can I
get this feature working again?

Thanks!
 
There appear to be a whole host of causes for this error message. Most have

In the most refractory of cases:
Get the Windows Installer Cleanup utility from Microsoft for your version of
Office. Then uninstall Word and run the installer cleanup utility to remove
anything that has Word in it and\or remove information from any previous
version of Microsoft Office. Reboot. Then I would re-install Word.
Reboot. Then go to Add\Remove and start to Remove Office but instead Repair
it. Reboot.
