Script Sentry Error Office 2000

[admiral_victory]

I have XP Pro with Office 2000 and recently , when I try to launch
either a ".doc" file or an " .xls " file I get the following error:-

"Script Sentry Error
_
Error 429, ActiveX component can't create object in
ScriptSentryFRM.CheckOfficeDocMaking oDocPro
Making oFilePropReader "

If I click again , the document then opens OK

What is happening here?

Your reference Forum suggests that I may have uninstalled or damaged
my Windows Scripting Host and says this can be d/l from the following
URL:-


http://www.microsoft.com/info/smart...crosoft.com/msdownload/vbscript/scripting.asp

I'm afraid I know absolutely nothing about Windows Scripting Hosts and
therefore found it difficult to find the file which I need to d/l from
this site.

I did , finally , d/l a file " scd 10en.exe " and installed this .
This has not cured the error message I was getting unfortunately and
I'm not even sure whether this is the correct file . Does this file
re-install WSH ? - if not , could you direct me to exactly where I
may find the necessary d/l ?

I seem to have only started receiving these error messages a few days
ago after I started experimenting with Script Sentry which I had only
then noticed I had this on the PC . I am totally unfamiliar with
Script Sentry.

Either
(1) Uninstall the non-Microsoft Script Sentry
or
(2) Visit this site. Download and install the two files

Requires Visual Basic 6 Runtimes
Requires Windows Scripting Host
