Word as Outlook 2000 email editor

[Dee]

When trying to use Microsoft Word as my email editor for
Outlook 2000 I get the following message...

"This form requires Word as your e-mail editor, but Word
is either busy or cannot be found."

I've checked the box that says to use Word as my editor
and have checked my machine for the Word viewer (which is
not installed on my machine. I am still getting the same
message.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance-
Dee

What service pack level is Office at and are the 2 applications of the same
version?

My apologies for barging in but I'm getting exactly the
same error AND when I start Word 2003 there is an
immediate popup "This document could not be registered.
It will not be possible to create links from other
documents to this document."

I'm using Standard Office 2003 for Students & Teachers
which means Outlook & Word 2003.
Word 2003 (11,6359.6360) SP1
Outlook 2003 (exactly same as Word 2003)

This ONLY started immediately after d/l and installing XP
Home SP2.
