word is set to be my email editor, but I keep getting an error

[Guest]

i have word 2003 and outlook 2003. I have word set as my email editor, but
when i try to use it i get an error message. It says, word is unavailable,
not installed, or is not the same version. Then it defaults to outlook as
the editor. All of the reasons it tells my are not true. Can you help?
I've reinstalled office and SP2, but to no avail!

Thanks!

Try this: Click Start>Run and in the Open field, enter

regsvr32 ole32.dl

and click OK.

What does this do? Is it changing the Registry? On both of my computers, an
error message came on saying that the Word Editor was unavailable. When I
tried "detect and repair" within Word, it doesn't notice the file needed on
my original Office 2003 Professional CD. This same thing happened on both
computers with it's original CD. What gives?
