Recommended Posts

I just rec'd the latest service pack install and it is asking me to insert my

Microsoft Office with FrontPage CD... I can't find it and cancel the install.

BUT, now I can't open Excel without the same prompt appearing. What is

happening and how do I fix this?

You're going to need your cd.

You might want to post in the office update newsgroup.

When you say you RECEIVED the latest service pack, what do you mean? (There

are bogus emails around that say they have the latest updates...)

the little yellow shield that appears whenever a new "patch" or "update"

needs to be installed...

2. Scroll down to and follow the instructions under "To install SP3 without

the original Office XP CD".

 

3. You want to download/install the file named
