Virus scanning

Posted: 02 Sep 2006 12:18 PM PDT

Hi Rick,

If you're running Norton/Symantec Antivirus open the control panel for that product and in the miscellaneous category remove the
Office Plug In. MS Office apps provide hooks to Antivirus software vendors to use to tie into the products. The Office Plugin is
one product that uses those hooks and it's usually relatively slow in getting done.

It is my understanding that the newer versions of Office software has a built
in virus scanning feature in the Office product. I used to have Office 97
loaded, and I didn't have to go through a "virus scanning " routine when I
started Word or Excel. I'm wondering if I can disable or deactive the Office
2003 built in virus scanning feature.

How do you "unlock" document to write a letter???

Posted: 02 Sep 2006 01:06 AM PDT

Is this the trial version (only one available for download)? If yes, did
you activate it? Did your trial expire?

Office 2007 beta2 Activation Key never received

Posted: 31 Aug 2006 07:25 PM PDT

Thanks, just received my activation email (download link with key) I had
assumed it would be more instantaneous, considering I received the other two
email within minutes...

Thanks again, everything is fine, and the new look of Office 2007 is great.

uninstalling office student & teacher edition 2003

To add to Gordan's comment, you might want to activate the office suite using
telephone after installation on another computer. Internet activation might
fail.

"Please install Office 2003 first" is displayed during MUI install

Posted: 31 Aug 2006 11:15 AM PDT

The basic situation, as I understand it, is that with the English Office 2003
install, the office menus, dialogs, etc are still in english, and not
locaized to spanish.

The MUI comes in in an attempt to correct that situation (without having to
purchase a localized version of Office Pro, since we had already purchased
the Office MUI pack).

I just can't figure out why the MUI installer thinks Office 2003 Pro isn't
installed. Do I need to slipstream an MUI service pack into the MUI install
set first? I'm reasonably sure that the Office install on this machine has
all of the Office updates applied, but I don't know if that would make a
difference.

I don't know if the copy of Windows is an OEM spanish version or retail...if
it makes a difference, I'll ask, but I know that it's not English-language
windows with the windows MUI for spanish. It was purchased in Costa Rica by
the user in question, but I don't know if it came with the PC, or if it was
purchased seperately (an after the fact).

I can't install my office xp pro - what's happening?

Posted: 31 Aug 2006 07:38 AM PDT

Perhaps if you explained what you did and what the results were someone can
help you. Posting "I can't install Office XP. What's happening?" can be
answered in many ways.

1. You don't have the CDs.
2. You have the CDs but they are scratched.
3. You have the CDs but not the product key.
4. You have get the error message "xxx".
5. The CD-ROM can't read the disk.
6. You're not connected to the internet and you can't activate it.

Shall I continue or are you through wasting my time?

Activation of multiple users

Posted: 29 Aug 2006 08:43 AM PDT

Huge companies use volume license so that "N" number of ppl can use it.
Its just that it requires license for each user on the Terminal Server.
Thats why its written in that article that you have pasted "if a license
exists for each user
who will run any of the Office 2003 programs"
Additionally there are MSDN licenses which i think supports 10 users.

Need to move Office 2003 AIP location

Posted: 28 Aug 2006 02:11 PM PDT

OK, so the problem now is the SP1 AIP does contain post-SP1 updates. Repairs
will not work correctly until i rerun the office setup from the SP2 source
(the recache command may work from the SP2 source too... but I have not tried)

This is what I am running on a SP1 workstation (from SP2 source)
SETUPPRO.EXE REINSTALL=all REBOOT=ReallySuppress /qb

This is what I want to do now and for future ease.

1) Copy the SP2 AIP to local
2) Run the above command on the workstation
3) Future updates i.e. SP3 would be installed by running the FF MSP

sorry for the rehash of info...

Office 2007 install probs - Registration window quits unexpectedly

Posted: 28 Aug 2006 06:56 AM PDT

Hi Sander,

It could be a damaged download or an incomplete install.
See if these steps make a difference.
===========
1. Backup your PC/files for safety.

2. Use Start=>Programs=>Accessories=>Disk Cleanup
to clear your Temporary Internet files and temp files.

3. Restart the PC. You may want to set a restore point
from Start=>Programs=>Accessories=>System Tools

4. Locate your 2007 Office Professional Beta 2
download file and note the folder/path location.

5. Create a new folder on your PC and note that
folder/path location.

6. Use Start=>Run , and on a single line, type in
the following (using the path & file names from
Step 4 & Step 5, above)

"drive:\Step4PathOfDownload\downloadfilename.e xe" /extract:"Step5path"

example: If saved your download in a '\downloads' folder and then created a new empty folder named Off2007ProB2CD1 to hold the
Office 2007 CD image that you're about to create, then the Start=>Run line would look like this sample (the use of quotes and spaces
is important)

"c:\downloads\OPPLUS-EN.EXE" /extract:"C:\Off2007ProB2CD1"


7. If the extraction is successful (you'll get a dialog box telling you it was after a few minutes). Shut down all running apps,
utilities, email, messengers, and antivirus.
Now double click Setup in your new Office 2007 CD image folder (the folder you created in Step 5).

Or, if the extraction in step 6 does not succeed then
the Office 2007 download may be damaged/corrupted. To help determine that usse Start=>Run and type
%temp% {enter key}
then locate in that folder the the Setup.exe(xxxxxxx).log
(file) just created (check the date and time if there are several) and see if that log file yields has any clues on where the
extraction failed.

Post back with the results either way please.

HELP - OFFICE XP Installation Hangs

Posted: 25 Aug 2006 11:33 AM PDT

I will try your suggestions but will not be able to do it until this weekend
as my son took the machine to school. I am having him bring it back this
weekend.

Based upon Mary Sauer's reply I checked the registry keys on a machine where
Office is working fine and the problem machine. The Software \OBDC keys were
the same on both. The Software\ODBC keys were identical except that the
problem machine has threeextra keys in the first section. Two of the extra
entires referred to a CBA thingamajig and a specific directory that was empty
on C: (C:\CBA if memory serves). I deleted those keys and tried to reinstall
and it hung again. The third entry wwa part of a Dreamweaver setup (I think
that is a program my son uses in school) so I left it there in order not to
screw up that program.

I really appreciate your taking the time to help me. I will get the Verbose
log to you sometime over the weekend.

Thanks,
Mike

Error 1402. Could not open key

I suspect that the registry entry pointed out is either not available or
corrupt. If its there, most likely you will not be able to modify or delete.
If nothing works out, try windows installer clean up utility to remove
office. This utility will certainly remove office.

Activating Office XP Professional 2002

Posted: 23 Aug 2006 07:31 PM PDT

Hm...I'm very surprised by that, because Office XP is still supported (at
least it hasn't reached the end of its lifecycle that I'm aware).

Where did your Office XP CDs come from? That is, are they "off the shelf"
retail copies that you purchased, or did they come pre-installed from a
computer manufacturer (who provided you the CDs, also)?
