Woord 2007 Shows visual Basic Compile Error on opening

[Reluctant Publisher User]

As of about a week ago, when I double click on a Word file (version doesn't
matter) Word opens, but not the document. On my screen is a dialog box
titled Micorsoft Visual Basic" that says "Compile error in hidden module:
AZWizardModul". Over that diaglog box that says "Cannot complte the command
because a dialog box is open."

I have to go to the menu or ^O and select the document again. It comes up
that time, but it displays the same messages.

Error showed up after a Microsoft update that conflicted with Zone Alarm and
lost my internet connection. Thanks to Zone Alarm, accessed from a different
computer, that has been solved, but I ran every spyware and hardware
maintenance program I have to try to figure out what was wrong before being
notified (via another computer) that the problem was.

Repair Office procedure says nothing is wrong.

That error message doesn't indicate a virus or spyware. You have a copy of the
Avery label wizard ("AZ" indicates "Avery Zweckform", created by their German
subsidiary) that isn't compatible with Office 2007.

Look in the folders

%appdata$\Microsoft\Word\Startup

%programfiles%\Microsoft Office\Office12\STARTUP

for a template whose name mentions Avery or Dennison or AZWizard, move it to a
different folder, and then restart Word.

:
sometimes there are only simple steps cleaning up a problem provided one
knows the solution. Following Mr. Freedman's proposition I shifted the
AZWizard from the startup file into XLStart and this annoying interfering
stopped and Word opens without hesitation. However I had to re-install the
AveryWizard, it could not be started any longer.
Thanks for help.
