James,

I've seen this before and Microsoft's cure is to delete the normal.dot
template file.  There are other possibilities, but its usually the
normal.dot.  Do a file find on your hard drive and search for all normal.dot
files.  Delete all of the ones it finds.  Then try opening Word again.  It
should open fine.  If this doesn't do it, go out to Microsoft's support web
site and look up Article Q162053 where there are more detailed resolutions.
