Re: Office 2003 error in limited accounts...stdole32.tlb

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Thanks for your reply, but it did not make any difference. Office still will
not run correctly under the limited accounts. I've read some about changing
permissions in certain registry keys. Any thoughts on that? And which keys?
Also, any ideas concerning the ole file?

I'm running Windows XP Home with one Admin account and two Limited accounts.
I've had Office 2003 Professional installed for years with no problems. I
decided to install all the updates through Microsoft update...did so, and now
it throws an error when trying to run any Office progs in the limited
accounts. Each time I run them it trys to run an installer. One time only
it gave an error for stdole32.tlb. The Office progs run fine when the user
is changed to Admin. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling. I've tried
temporarily changing the accounts to Admin before installing. I've tried
running the Office progs once under Admin and then changing back to Limited.
I'm pretty sure it's a permissions problem, possibly involving
stdole32.tlb....Any ideas?
