About one time a month I am getting the following error when i try to open an email:

This form requires word as your e-mail editor, but Word is either busy or cannot be found. The form will be opened in the Outlook editor instead.

After I gethis error I have to reboot and after rebooting I have to re enable word to be the default email editor.

NT 4.0, Office 2000

Any Suggestions?

This is a know microsoft problem. To resolve this issue simply start Word 2000 prior to starting outlook. I have found that this resolves the issue I was having.

In my PC I am having this same problem. Which I resolved by first starting Word 2000 before Outlook 2000.

Hope this solves yours also.
