PROBLEM OPENING MS WORD: This might be a backwards way of doing things but...There is a problem with some MS Office programs opening that I would like to address. Opening word in almost any version may show an error, " There was a problem sending the command to the program.", I found that by left clicking the shortcut or the program and selecting "properties", then De-selecting "Run as an administrator" solved the problem completely. I hope this helps because it drove me nutsy! There are other remedies around also but this worked for me...........Uncle
Uncle, you found a great workaround to fix this problem. If you would like a more permement solution, try the one below. I found this answer here: http://windowssecrets.com/forums/showthread.php/136470-Word-2007-ERROR-quot-There-was-a-problem-sending-the-command-to-the-program-quot
It sounds as though the DDE setting for the .doc and/or .docx extensions are broken.
You might want to "re-register" Word's file extensions, which simply involves using the /r startup switch. This article provides more than anyone really needs to know: How to use startup command line switches to start Word 2010, Word 2007, Word 2003, Word 2002, and Word 2000. In brief:
Close Word
Start > Run > winword.exe /r {ENTER}
Does that fix it?
If you want to try manual surgery and are running Windows XP, you can view/edit the setting from Windows Explorer or My Computer: Tools > Folder Options > File Types tab > [appropriate extension] > select open then edit or modify. If you uncheck the "Use DDE" box and save, then the registry should be updated.

The resolution appears to be two fold,
First of all you might want to add the following registry key depending on the application for which the user gets a prompt:
Click on Start Run then type in the following command for respective applications.
reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\<application>\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1
For Ex:
reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Word\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1
reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Excel\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1
reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1
reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\PowerPoint\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1.
This should normally take care of the issue in applications like Outlook ,Word and Power point .
The user might also get a secondary error message when opening Excel application that states the following.
Note: Opening excel in the application safe mode would bypass the error. But this could be misleading coz the issue has more to do with permission than add-in within the application.
To resolve this problem you would need to perform the following steps:
1) Go to start > run > regedit
2) Navigate to the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT > Excel.Chart.8
3) Right Click on key and select Permissions
4) In the Permission windows > Click on Add Tab and add everyone
5) Once this is done Click on the Advanced Tab > Owner > Highlight Everyone > Click on Apply and Ok
6) In the Permission > Select Everyone > enable the check box for Full Control and Read, then Click on Apply and Ok.
7) Click on F5 to refresh, this should create a new Sub key below Excel.Chart.8 called Protocol > Right Click on the key and repeat step 3 – 5.
8) Refresh again and follow the same sequence of steps to add permission to the following Sub keys StdFileEditing >Server.
9) Close the registry editor.
This should resolve the issue for good.
