Each time I try to open an Office (2003 or XP) program as a USER (XPsp3 OS)
the program "loads" popping up various windows but then finally seems to
work.
One of the windows says the stdole32.tlb is corrupt or does not exist please
run setup again. This does not happen when logged in as ADMIN.
I have tried uninstalling, reinstalling, changing permissions in the
registry (even though that fix applied to NT and 2000) and using Windows
Installer Cleanup utility all to no avail.
Historically, I installed Office XP and uninstalled it and then installed
Office 2003 before I noticed the problem.
I am setting up a fresh virtual machine to determine if a clean XP install
with a clean Office XP or 2003 install will solve the problem. If that
doesn't work I will resort to a clean install on a "real" (as opposed to
virtual) machine and see if that works.
