word and excel errors on open
 

when I open word and excel they both have errors. this is a fresh install on a laptop( a dell latitude).with windows 2000.
ok word comes with this error "compile error in hidden module AutoExec"
and when you close it it has the same error.

on excel it says "compile error in hidden module AutoExecNew" when you start the program and when you close it says "compile error in hidden module Distmon"

what can I do to stop this?
