Outlook 2003 Problem

[ShekharPalash]

Whenever I try to open a new message or edit a message using word 2003 in outlook 2003 I get the following message:

"Microsoft Word is set to be your e-mail editor. However, Word is unavailable, not installed, or is not the same version as Outlook. The Outlook e-mail editor will be used instead. An OLE registration error occurred. The program is not correctly installed. Run setup again for the program."

I noticed this erroe comes due to installation of a recent Outlook Junk Mail Filter from Microsoft Update.

On searching I found it can be fixed by this:

Run > Msiexec.exe /fm GUID For Office 2003 Product

I don't know what's the GUID for Outlook.

Which launches MSInstaller with failure target message for .MSP / .MSI required.

Please help me locating this GUID stuff for Outlook 2003.

Info: Genuine Outlook 2003 SP2, Windows XP SP2, NAV 2005... all fully updated... with all fixes & security updates.

Help!... I don't wanna uninstall /re-install Office once again

In Outlook go to Tools>Options>Mail Format
Uncheck the following
1. Use Microsoft Word 2003 to edit e-mail messages
2. Use Microsoft Word 2003 to read Rich text e-mail messages
