Which OS X version are you using? You might want to try downloading the latest combo updater from Apple for that version and installing it to see if it resolves the problem.

Apple - Support - Downloads

There's an uninstall included with the Office 2008 application. You can use that, and then reinstall Office to see if that helps.
