Wow!! You're a genius. Worked perfectly.
I'm sure that I will eventually need to "fix" the other Office apps someday
so maybe you could briefly include those commands as well - IF you have
time.
Sure appreciate all your help so far!

You're more than welcome. :-)

The same command works for Excel as well (and the rest of the Office
apps). However only Word supports the abbreviated switch so use:

excel /regserver

Note the space before the forward slash.

Thank you very much! That took care of the problem with MS Word.
But MS Excel still has the same problem. Any ideas on how to fix that??

A couple slight correction in the commands:

winword /regserver

Note the space before the forward slash. Also, Word supports the
abbreviated switch: winword /r

To unregister Word:

winword /unregserver

Again, note the space before the forward slash.

Clicking Start - Run
Type "winword.exe/regserver" without the quotes and click on OK.

You might have to unregister winword first if that doesn't work by
itself. To do that,
Type "winword.exe/regserver" without the quotes and click on OK.
