Default SQL Error on Word 2002 Startup

I first went to Tools Templates and Add-ins and removed it from the
"Global templates and add-ins" list. I thought that doing this would
prevent the add-in from getting loaded, but when I restarted Word I got the
same message. That's when I realized that it must be in the startup folder
for Word, so I went moved the file out of that folder.

I "removed the add-in" by moving the .dot file out of the Startup folder.
If there is a way to uninstall it, I overlooked that (and didn't
necessarily want to do that, anyway).

I had the same problem, and I identified the same solution. In my case,
after I removed the TaskPaneController add-in I still got the message. I
had to also remove the TaskPaneController.dot from the Word Startup
folder. There was also a temporary file in the Word Startup folder (even
though Word was closed at the time) that I deleted.

I had this same problem. In my case, it was caused (apparently) by the
TaskPaneController add-in, which I removed without ill effect, as it's no
longer needed in Word 2003. If you have that add-in for Word 2002, you
may still be able to remove it without problems (I'm told it's already
modified the required Registry entry, and after it's done that, it can be
dispensed with.

If you don't have that particular add-in, the problem may be caused by
some other add-in; apparently the latest update resulted in some change
that conflicts with add-ins that load at startup.

If you can't identify the troublesome add-in, or if it's not practical
to remove the add-in, you can suppress the message altogether with a
Registry edit (see "Opening This Will Run the Following SQL Command"
Message When You Open a Word Document at
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=825765), but if you prefer not to
make this change (which MS does not recommend), you'll probably just
have to suck it up and live with the message until next month when
perhaps MS will push a hotfix for it.

Whenever I start up word (in fact only since the latest updates) I
receive
the following error:
"Opening this document will runn the following SQL command:"
Then there is a blank line, then...
"Data from your database will be placed in the document. Do you wish
to
proceed? Yes/No"
Regardless of whether I click yes or no, everything loads and words
well.

Any clues as to why this is happend and how I can fix it??
Cheers,
