"There are no Office Assistant character files present"

[Guest]

When having the Office 2k3 Outlook open and then I try to open word 2000 or
Excel 2000 I get "There are no Office Assistant character files present". I
know that somehow the assitant for 2000 and 2003 can't operate at the same
time. Is there a fix for this?
