Darlene, Go to www.office.microsoft.com and do all of the product updates. The issue about looking for the .msi file is resolved if you get your Office totally up to date with Service Packs. The error is: Office originally needed the exact .msi it was installed from (the exact network share or the exact cd (not a copy of that cd) this is resolved in the updates. _____ Brian Claus, A+, Network+, MCP Network Administrator WESCO Distribution, Inc. 225 West Station Square Drive, Suite 700 Pittsburgh, PA 15219-1122 Phone: 412-454-2412 Fax: 412-454-2540 bclaus@xxxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:bclaus@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> _____ -----Original Message----- From: Darlene [mailto:babydoveme@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, April 14, 2003 4:37 PM To: windows2000@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [windows2000] Re: Error 1706 yes I did try detect and repair no help but I think I am gonna try to run it under administration first as suggested earlier and if that does not work I will try the steps that was sent to me over the weekend.
