Hi George
Roger
Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.
Hi Darran,
Having just gone through the process described, here's my take, though you may need some sighted help if you can't find what I describe.
Start, Run, and in the dialog there type
Services.msc
The press Enter or click OK.
You will now get the Services dialog up.
You should find a column listing all the services on your system, in alphabetical order.
Go down to "Office Source Engine" (OSE) which should be highlighted.
You should then find a "Start Service" link or button. Click on this, and it will start the OSE.
Go back to the list where the OSE should now be shown as "Started". Double click on it, which will being up the Properties dialog for the Office Source Engine. There are four tabs, of which "General" should be the default.
Go down to the "Startup type;" listbox, and select "Manual".
(Below that is "Service status:" which hopefully says "Started".)
Tab down to the Apply button and click on it.
Close all windows and try the Office Update again.
George.

Hi George.
Below is the resolution recommended for my set-up, namely Office 2003 with Windows XP.
All the relevant info should be there.
Any advice, as ever, gratefully received.

| Hi Darran, | | Not sure of your screen reader will function in this, but to | get to a command line prompt, go to Start, Run, and in the | dialog that comes up, type cmd and press Enter. | | You are now in what visually appears to be a DOS screen. | | Normally commands are entered as specified in MS's KB | articles, and you then simply press Enter to execute the | command. | | To get out of this command mode, type exit and press enter. | | If you can let me know the MS KB article number, I can try | to be more specific as to what you need to do. | | George. | | -----Original Message----- | From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx | [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Darran Ross | Sent: 14 July 2006 22:30 | To: Access-UK | Subject: [access-uk] Advice for Using the Command Prompt | | Hi List. | | I've had a problem with updates for Office 2003 not being | installed, and the MS Knowledge Base has suggested a | resolution, but to do this I need to enter the Command | Prompt.
