Default SQL Error on Word 2002 Startup

Update:

I just found that even after removing the add-in and deleting the file, I
was still getting the message when opening documents stored on a SharePoint
site. I checked the list of add-ins again, just to make sure that the
TaskPaneController had not come back, and the list was blank. Opening a
document from a SharePoint site and then saving that document back to the
site seems to have fixed the problem.

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??
