this problem and no solutions. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling,
using the 'install clean up' tool, repairing,officediagnostics... nothing
fixes this. Now the file associations aren't even working. A .doc file
isn't even associated with Word anymore.

Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?

Here is the ABSOLUTELY GARUNTEED Solution to this problem:
1. Un-Install the complete Microsoft Office
2. Use CCleaner to clean up the mess Microsoft is too lazy to un-
install. Clean Files, System and Registry with CCleaner.
3. Go He www.OpenOffice.org
4. Download and Install the latest version of OpenOffice for FREE
(don't let this fool you it is just as full-featured as Microsoft
Office without all the BLOAT).
5. Repackage and sell Microsoft Office on E-Bay
6. Use the proceeds of the sale to make a donation to OpenOffice.org
(You WILL want to do this because of the no-worries product you now
have in place of Microsoft Office.
7. Write a nasty letter to Microsoft and tell them to shove their
products up their NOSE but do not tell the the replacement you have
found - They will try to BUY it!
8. Keep your new office apps updated because they are being improved
monthly and there is never a cost to you.
9. Smile - Don't worry, Be Happy

While that solution will work, it doesn't fix the problem for those of us
wanting to use MS Office. I'm having the same
problem and I suspect Vista is the culprit as it happened to Acrobat Pro
until I uninstalled it waiting for a fix. If I'm patient,
the problem will resolve so I can go to work. It's more of a hinderance than
anything else. I'm sure Microsoft is aware
of this and I've even been online with Tech Support to no avail. They say
uninstall office and reinstall it. Hell, if you do that
enough times, you have to start dealing with Bopal, India and explain why
you installed it so many times Microsoft should
have a policy like Adobe, whereas you can 'deactivate' your product until
you activate it again.

I've tried Open Office, however, I just don't like using open source
software due to it's vulnerbilities. It would be very easy for
some crackpot to insert some code that will do harm or even snoop on your
system. I wouldn't use Open Office unless it
wasn't open source. Then I would use it. Until then, I'll have to stick
with Micro****.
