Error 1919. Error configuring ODBC data source

D

Diamond

I shall apologize now for intriducing a subject that perhaps has been
discussed. I have xp home. I recently purchased ms office 2000. While I was
installing it two issues came up:

Error 1919. Error configuring ODBC data source: dBASE Files. ODBC error 6:
Verify that the file dBASE Files exists and that you can access it.
this came up Press ignore, retry ot cancel
during the install. 95 % of my office and relevant programs run, however I
can not get word to become my default email editor or I can not bring up any
help in various office programs. When I try to open those two functions it
ask for
an install from the disc. I comply and the error message comes up in regards
to windows installer error 1635. I have downloaded the newest 3.0 from ms but
to no avail I can't seem to fix it.
Please understand I am a new to this computer thing.
Thank you in advance for your consideration
Is thre a simple patch or fix to help me out of this issue.
Brian
