Default Office Applications will not load after a windows re-install

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I am using Office 10 with Microsoft Windows
XP Home Edition (service pack 1a included).

I had to re-install windows today due to system crash. All word/excel files
were backed up and the hard drive was not formatted (re-installation of
office not performed as De!! did not provide office CD).

I created new shortcuts to word/excel on the desktop but get the following
error message when I load any office application.

"Microsoft word has not been installed for the current user. Please run
setup for the current user".

I can't find the office setup/install file in the main office directory and
I need to edit some word files this evening. User name was changed to same
name as before re-install but this had no effect.

Any help / suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
