Good News!!!

I had the exact same issue as everyone in this thread, and after some
extensive research I was able to fix the problem on my computer with a
little work.

I found that the problem lies within office 2003 sp1. I actually have
the service pack disk from windows and watched it reinstall the exact
same file that it says is missing as I was reinstalling. But anyway,
you all want a fix.

From support.microsoft.com download the "Windows Installer CleanUp"
Utility. When you install/run the utility, it should show up on your
programs menu.

This utility will uninstall any programs that use the "Windows
Installer" as its application installer. The file is not missing but is
actually corrupt. I imagine that you are also unable to uninstall office
03 from the control panel?

This Utility will do this for you and then you can install a fresh copy
of office 2003. Just make sure you don't uninstall/clean programs that
deal with your OS. It should give the specific name of the program you
wish to remove. In this case Microsoft Office 2003. Then you can
reinstall a fresh copy.

I didn't have any problem losing any of my office settings, but it is a
good idea to backup your files and settings just in case.

Hope this helps you all.

Fortunately I set aside my old drive for a week to see if the copy over
was error free.
I gave up and recopied my hard drive again using Maxtor MB3 using a floppy.
I then copied the C drive and then latter copied the second partition.
Then removed the old drive, booted up using ONLY the new drive.
No problem.
I thought the problem was when windows assigns drive letters.
Originally I had installed the newer larger, only I partitioned the
drive and only copied the C partition. Latter using windows I copied the
D drive contents with windows 'seeing' both drives. At this point the
old primary partition was C, new primary D, old secondary E, new
secondary F. Later I pulled the old drive. Now the new drive primary
was C, new secondary D. This was where the problems started.
You were right, there was no escape from the problem. No way to
uninstall or repair. What a pain.
I will keep your email.

I tried that, still getting the same errors - cannot re-install or repair
any office products, including frontpage 2003, which has it's own CD. Still
looking for outlfltr.msp, even though it is on my computer, it won't use the
version that is there.
