This will happen during an upgrade,you will need the office 2k disk and reinstall the applications,files have been overwritten,some applications will not function properly after upgrade or reinstall of the OS.
So,reinstall office programs and it should work,but it may not have saved the info if not backed up or saved to disk.
Hope this helps

actual i had done this already and it still came up with file not available this is why i am confused .. is there any other way other then a backup .. and thank you dmiles for the help

Go to Microsoft Windows Update and reinstall the office service pack that was installed before the upgrade,this may solve your problem once the service pack is installed

thanks all of you very much when i took a good look at the file it seems that the upgrade renamed the files with ~ in front of them once i removed it they all worked normal

thanks again
