| Posted: 16 Mar 2007 09:14 AM PDT JoAnn's information was correct. If an upgrade edition of MS Office does not find a qualifying product install it will ask you to provide the original product CD of a qualifying product. ============ <<<co.uk> wrote in message news:com...

| Posted: 15 Mar 2007 12:31 PM PDT I did, they had never heard of this problem either. I called Microsoft, they said since it's OEM, I would have to pay $49.00 to talk to someone. That's why I am here. "Peter Foldes" wrote: |
| Installation Problem Office 2000 Posted: 15 Mar 2007 09:21 AM PDT Hi Matthew, The .MSI file is only available on the original product CD, it's not available from Microsoft as a download and MS no longer has Office 2000 CD versions available. Office 2000 was released then re-released twice Office 2000 (original) Office 2000 with SR1 Service Release Office 2000 with SR2 Service Release The updates were also provided in .MSP patch versions both in download and CD patch disks. Once the Service Release (SR1a) was installed then the way the Installer saw things you it would report that you had Office 2000 SR1, but 'knew' that your CD would be the original one. That SR1 is appearing in the 'Use CD from' dialog box tends to indicate that the SR1 update was applied at some point. Be sure that the CD you have is for the same Edition (Premium) that is listed in Add/Remove Programs in the Windows control panel and that it's CD#1 (Premium is a 4 CD set). One of the most common places where you'd run into the CD not being accepted is that the original installation is damaged (which, unfortunately, requires the CD to repair). If you cannot complete a Repair/Reinstall of Office 2000 from the Microsoft Office 2000 listing in Add/Remove Programs then you may need to use the MS Installer cleanup utility, then restart the PC then reinstall and repatch, but that can vary based on the exact error message you receive when trying to do the repair. Let us know what that is please. ============= <<"Matthew White" <microsoft.com> wrote in message news:com... Peter, This really doesn't answer my question. It is a link that I already have and I mentioned that I downloaded the Sr-1a full version that this link points to. It extracts a data1.MSP, not the .MSI that the program is looking for. Do you know where I can download the package with the SR-1a MSI? >> -- Bob Buckland ?:-) MS Office System Products MVP *Courtesy is not expensive and can pay big dividends* |

| Running Office XP and Office 2007 Posted: 15 Mar 2007 02:39 AM PDT Hi Warren, The installer starting is 'normal' behavior when you run multiple Office versions (a practice MS recognizes but doesn't recommend <g>) With multiple versions of Word installed the MS Installer changes the settings to match the correct (last used) version when you start it. (More information on having multiple versions of Office installed appears here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928091 ) There are a couple of workarounds. 1. Create and use (where the PC has enough 'oomph' to support it, Virtual PC installations to separate the versions http://microsoft.com/virtualpc 2. Edit the registry to have the installer ignore the 'switch' between versions. While this will stop the installer on a regular (as you use the apps) basis it's not clear at present what other areas this may affect when switching between Word versions, including running a repair (Office 2000 thru 2003)/diagnostic (Office 2007) or when updates are applied. Here are the steps on Windows XP, they may vary slightly in Windows Vista. As a suggestion, you may want to lock things into the version of Word that matches the version of Outlook you'll be using. a. Optionally, run either Repair from the Word 2000-2003 help menu and/or an Office diagnostic from Office 2007 to double check that the 'innards' are in good order. b. Run the version of Word that you want to have associated with your .doc, .dot, .docx, etc files, then close Word. c. Double click, in Windows Explorer in My Documents or another folder a .doc file to be sure it opens in the correct version you prefer to use then close all running Office apps. d. Use Start=>Run and type Regedit. e. Navigate down in HKEY_CURRENT_USER to \Software\Microsoft\Office f. For Word 2007 (v12.0) continue to navigate through \12.0\Word\Options and once there right click on the 'Options' branch in the left panel and create a new 'DWORD' named NoReReg , then set the value of NoReReg to 1. g. For Word 2003 (v11.0), follow the same steps as in 2f, but use the area for Word 2003, which would be \11.0\Word\Options h. For Word 2002 (v10.0), follow the same steps as in 2f, but use the area for Word 2002 (Office XP), which would be \10.0\Word\Options Note that this doees work for Word 2003 and Word 2007 but I don't recall if the 'NoReReg' key is recognized in the Office XP/2002 or Office 2000 editions. Please let us know how this goes for you ================== <<"Warren" <microsoft.com> wrote in message news:com... By default, Office XP and 2007 place their content within subfolders, which is in the official Microsoft documentation: Office XP: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\ Office 2007: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office 12\ Both suites do run on the same PC, but as I mentioned if you switch from one to the other (such as Word, which is the biggest culprit) you get either the Windows Installer configuring office XP, or Office 2007 setup re-setting up Office despite it being already installed. I'll try installing one away from the default folder, but to be honest I think that's already been tried with *exactly* the same result. << -- Bob Buckland ?:-) MS Office System Products MVP *Courtesy is not expensive and can pay big dividends* |
| Right click a doc running office 2007 send to doesnt work Posted: 14 Mar 2007 03:22 PM PDT Are you in the Word, File Open dialog or in Windows explorer? both, as mentioned i get the mapi error "This error can occur if you attempt to send a Word document as an e- mail attachment in Word and the MAPI session was closed and Word is no longer able to connect to that MAPI session. It can also occur if there is a problem with the fax configuration. To correct a MAPI related error: restart the MAPI e-mail program (for example,Outlook) or save and close the document, and then restart Word after restarting your MAPI e-mail application. Word will establish a new MAPI session, allowing the document to be sent. To correct a problem with the fax configuration, review the configuration settings for your fax software and make the appropriate changes." What version of Windows and which 'send to' option are you trying to use? XP SP2 If 'Send to email recipient' what email app are you using? Office 2007 Outlook 2007 |
| Posted: 14 Mar 2007 02:27 AM PDT To be honest, it would have been a lot better had Microsoft given users the choice of interfaces. I object particularly to the fact that plenty of staff will look at the Ribbon, think "I'm not using that!" and never bother with Office. There's probably a massive retraining budget needed so that users are comfortable with the look and feel. That look and feel hasn't changed that much since Word 6, and many of our admin staff have been using Word since then. I'd hate to deploy Office 2007 right now and give them no option. It only makes me even more determined to move to OpenOffice instead... |
| Office 2007 Installation Issues Posted: 13 Mar 2007 06:49 AM PDT I actually got it to install last night (total of 18 hrs of Vista issues, then another 12 hours downtime in office 2007 issues). Still waiting on MS to contact me, I have offered to submit my solution for a white paper - we will see. It involved a lot of registry manipulation.. Not a typical install for someone who may be in my same position that has min. computer experience. I think normally it would have worked well, I beleive it has soemthing to do with downloading the trial version. That is where the problem lies. Everything works well with the exception of Accounting Express - can't get to accept my prodcut code - still thinks it is in trial mode. MS is working on getting me a full product key code, so hopefully that will work. Thanks for replying BTW - Beware installing Vista and Office 2007 with Vista - not a walk in the park! Nor is it worth the trouble..not that great of an OS. Jeff "Gerry Hickman" wrote: |
| Posted: 13 Mar 2007 01:04 AM PDT If you have an Enterprise version of Office 2007 (and the volume license key) and create a network Installation point (a CD image if from an Office CD, or from an extract of Office 2007 from a download image) then running Setup.exe /Admin will start the Office 2007 Customization Tool (OCT). It is not available for OEM or retail products. For additional information on using the Office Customization Tool the Office 2007 Resource Kit may be of help: http://microsoft.com/office/ork The OCT does not support GPO deployments, as it creates .MSP (installer patch files) for customization and the MS Installer doesn't support .MSP files with that method. =================== <<"Mr. Hardware" <microsoft.com> wrote in message news:com... Bob pls forgive for not being clear. I just don't have it. And was hoping it could become available for D/L. I think it kinda sux's that WE (partners and the apprpreate) don't have it. For 2003 ver. I made several transforms, and others. That, would speed up my small deployments (spc. SBS+5-25). But do (mentally) recreate a cfg xml makes me pout. When the OCT is yes/no. That's all. WAIK and OPK dont sute this method verry well. Those are related to in-house Admin, and completed machines.>> -- Bob Buckland ?:-) MS Office System Products MVP *Courtesy is not expensive and can pay big dividends* |

| Customize the Quick Access Toolbar in Office 2007 Posted: 12 Mar 2007 12:43 PM PDT Hi Matt, The Quick Access Toolbars are stored in .QAT files. For Word it would be Word.QAT. (They're XML files).

| Windows keeps trying to install Office 2007--please help. Posted: 11 Mar 2007 03:29 PM PDT Hey Dingo - Jeff C here, I just posted the same problem. I have been fighting this for a week. Third tier MS tech, they can't fix. Windows installer pops up 4-5 times when opening Outlook, Excel, Word. I upgraded from 2003 to Small Business. Business Contact Man. and Accounting Express do not work either. I try to revert back and have now success. Let me know if you come up with anything. I have tried everything except re-fromating my hard drive and starting from scrathc - which I am about ready to do. later - jeffc "Dingo" wrote: |
