I am running XP Pro with Office 2003 Pro. All has been working well for
years. I downloaded and installed SQL Server 2005 Express and VB 2005
Express. SQL Server was not working properly and started causing other
problems on my system. I went through control panel add/remove programs and
uninstalled SQL Server. Since then, I can not run any of my Office 2003
applications. I receive the same error message for each (See subject). I
tried to do a repair and that did not work. I next tried a reinstall which
did not work either. I do not want to lose all my e-mail from outlook nor my
working files from the other applications. What can I do? I have read the
various posts about the problem but have not found anything that works. I
located the Data.dat file and did a properties to check the security tab but
there is no security tab on it. I am at my wits end.....

Thanks,
