u can solve ur prob. in this way: Go in control pannel under administration tools -> services and start office source engine services (i ve set this service also as automatic). The prob happen some times when u use office 2003 or try to install some updates because the updates installation or the office is unable to start and use this service. Don't ask me why but is it. I ve had the same prob at work on all pcs running office 2003 (i think happend after an update from windows update). i hope this thing will be useful
