"Microsoft Office XXXXX has not been installed for the current use

Hello,

I'm using Microsoft Office 2003 Professional on XP Professional. The program
has been installed and working without problems for over a year. Yesterday, I
noticed that the spell check was not working, and I did a repair to the
installation. Now, I get the message:

"Microsoft XXXXX has not been installed for the current user. Please run
setup to install the application.

This message is for Word, Excel, Access, Powerpoint, Publisher and Outlook.

I have seen several KB notes here, but none has worked. The program works
under the administrator logon without any problems. I have completely removed
the program several times by unistalling the program, deleting any remaining
folders in the Program Files group, deleting the folder C:\Documents and
Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Office (and the one under the
specific user), and registry entries specified in several of the KB articles
on the site.

I also added a new user to the computer, and setup files ran when accessing
Office for the first time, and it was fine. Doing that for day to day work
for the existing user is a poor option.

Any help or ideas are greatly appreciated.

Jeff
