Problem with the CIW (Custom Installation Wizard).

Posted: 10 Feb 2005 06:03 AM PST

Hi, Kor,

I would suggest this:

Run setup /a to create the administrative installation point
Patch the AIP with SP3
Create your transform to install Office (already patched)

See "Applying Office 2000 SP3 to an administrative installation point" in
the article:

Microsoft Office Assistance: Office 2000 Service Pack 3 (SP3):

MSDN subscriptions can be had for as little as $1500 US. Don't know the
conversion rate but the rate you cite is much higher than even the most
expensive MSDN subscription.

Also, to the OP, I should have said "Outlook" is available as a standalone
application, not "Office."

OS not configured to run Application

Posted: 09 Feb 2005 12:27 PM PST

Problem solved.
Something messed up the MS Word/Excel shortcuts on my desktop. During the
repair install, I checked the restore start menu also.

Now they work when I use the start menu, but they don't work when I use the
icons. Guess I'll replace the icons...

Put this in your bag of tricks folks!
Thanks for your help

Where can I get Frontpage2003 from? I have Office 2003 Pro

Posted: 09 Feb 2005 11:17 AM PST

Hi Simon,

MS chose not to include MS Office Frontpage 2003
in any of the MS Office 2003 Editions. It's a
standalone app.
http://microsoft.com/office/frontpage/howtobuy

========= 
news:com...
I have Office 2003 Pro bought from PC World, yet Frontpage is not on it. On
the Microsoft site though, when you order a Frontpage demo, it comes to the
same 30 2003 trial. Where can I get it from? >>

Can I uninstall Office XP if I've installed Office 2003-pro?

Posted: 09 Feb 2005 09:21 AM PST

If your copy of Office 2003 Professional is not an upgrade, then you can
uninstall Office XP and not lose anything except the Office Shortcut
Bar, which is not included in Office 2003. If any problems arise, you
can fix them by running "Detect and Repair" from Start | Control Panel |
Add/Remove Programs | Microsoft Office 2003.

Hello Bob,
I get only outlook if I use the custom install and go the long way. I
did however find the outlk11.msi file in the office 2003 pro that we had.
The MST ran great.
Thanks,

Free Trial for Office 2003

Posted: 08 Feb 2005 05:19 PM PST

Two more ideas: Do you have Windows 2000 with Service Pack 3 or higher,
or Windows XP? If you have set up multiple user accounts in Windows,
are you signed in as Administrator when you try to install?

.jpg .gif .bmp file associations gone, upgrade from Office XP to 2

Posted: 08 Feb 2005 01:47 PM PST

Hello,

Thank you for posting.

From your post, my understanding of this issue is: After upgrading Office
XP to Office 2003, image file associations are no longer configured as you
like. You would like image files other than .jpg to be associated with MS
Office Picture Manager, and to have .jpg files associated with Photoshop.
If this is not correct, please feel free to let me know.

In order to assiociate image files with MS Office Picture Manager, you can
change these settings in the Picture Manager (by default Start > Programs >
Microsoft Office > Microsoft Office Tools > Microsoft Office Picture
Manager). When the Picture Manager is opened for the first time, you
should be prompted with a file association dialog box where you can adjust
these settings. If you are not, you can open this dialog from the tools
menu (tools > File Types). In this dialog, you can associate image files
with the picture manager.

To ensure that .jpg files are opened with Adobe Photoshop, you can shift +
right click a file in Windows Explorer, select 'Open with' and 'Choose
Program'. In the Open With dialog box, select Photoshop and tick the
'Always use the selected program to open this kind of file' option.

Please let me know if you have any other concerns, or need anything else.

Hope this helps!

Sincerely,

Dana Brash

How do I Install Office XP to Run from CD?

Posted: 08 Feb 2005 06:27 AM PST

Office XP has the 'run from CD' option disabled.
The files needed are in compressed .cab files rather
than in files that can be used directly.
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;284463&FR=1

The change was part of reducing the number of CDs from
what was used in prior Office editions.

I need to install Office XP so it will run from CD. I cannot install the
program first and then change the program's installaton type through the
Add/Remopve feature as was suggested in one article I read. Due to our
company's support policies, I want to install as few files as possible on the
hard drive. When I try to do a custom installation, the 'Run from CD' and
'Run All from CD' options are not available. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.>>

Yes Bob, sorry I should have stated that in the original question. This has
been disabled and it doesn't appear to effect the changes it looks like it
should.

To add to, and slightly correct, what Gyorgy has said (though he's basically
right - the STE does *NOT* qualify you for an upgrade to future versions)
you cannot upgrade between products of the same family - it's considered a

Installing my own Office product over computer bundled trial versi

Posted: 07 Feb 2005 08:27 PM PST

I'd almost say that it was mandatory.... Our Dells came with MS Works
w/Office. The first time I tried to install over it and I ended up with
multiple Word installs. Interesting trying to upgrade from the Office Update
site... ;-(

Uninstall first.....

Can't Open Files or Load Access on New PC

Posted: 06 Feb 2005 09:29 AM PST

Search for the OFFICEAV.DLL file on your hard drive (include hidden and
system files/folders in the search options). If you find it, note the
directory path where it is located. Close all open applications. From
Windows, click on Start | Run. In the Open dialog box, type the command
(including quotes):

regsvr32 -U "C:\<path>\OFFICEAV.DLL"

but replace <path> with the directory path for your OfficeAV.dll file.
Click on OK. You only have to run this command once (not every time you
restart your computer). You should get the message:
"DllUnregisterServer in C:\<path>\OfficeAV.dll succeeded." Reboot the
computer. Does the problem persist?

Office 2003 Re-Activation

Posted: 05 Feb 2005 05:33 AM PST

I, too, build OEM PCs and use OEM software. Sometimes, I'll load the said
software and will try to activate it when the wizard tells me that it can't
be activated -- a.k.a. already been activated. I know it's BS as i just
unwrapped the software & know it's never been installed prior to this point!
I just call MS (the activation phone #) and explain to them what happened.
They should be able to help you out too.

Or even READ the admonition that appears when you open Outlook for the first
time and it says it found an exisiting account, would you like to import it?

There are seldom vendor solutions for user ineptness.

If you're using Word as your email editor in Outlook, try turning that
