Usually, "xxx.exe has generated errors....." is its own application problem. and it is often, not repaired only by repairing tools.

Uninstall Word and Reinstall it.

let me know whether it worked or not.
 
I have corrected this by getting the latest print drivers. Not sure if this will help, but I am not having this issue since the driver update. If it ain't broken, play with it till it breaks.
 
Thanks guys..but Mick resolved the problem for me!!

I was having the same problem. I loaded the service packs..I reinstalled and I repaired it. Nothing seemed to work. Mick's your idea of deleting everything from c:\program files\microsoft office\office\startup did the trick.

MERCI BEAUCOUP !! [2thumbsup] [2thumbsup] [2thumbsup]
