For anyone that's curious someone outside of the newsgroups just provided
the answer and it worked beautifully. I had to reset registry permissions
as per

A few days ago a user hard a problem working with a Word XP document that
included embedded Excel XP spreadsheets. Since then when she opens Excel
spreadsheets that include
VB they generate a
VB error that says "object
library not registered". I did some troubleshooting and found that the
error does not occur logged on to the same PC as Administrator and the error
does not occur if I add the user to the local Administrators group. The
error also does not occur if the user logs onto another computer. I could
likely resolve this error by reimaging the PC, but I'd like to find a less
drastic solution if possible. Any thoughts?
