error starting office 2003

It could be.

Do you still need Office 2000? If not, you might uninstall it.

You might try running the Windows Installer cleanup utility and removing the
installer entries for Office 2003. Then re-install Office, and try the
patch again.

I will try the utility
the orginal install of 2003 I chose the option for
upgrading. I cannot find any traces of office 2k or in the
add or remove programs window.. I am concerned I have lost
my files... (address book and emails) How can I check? I
might try re-installing 2000 office and see if I can
access these and save them in a file where I can find the
info after the upgrade is successful. Will advise,
unless you think I am wasting my time!

tried all of the above.. same error
after the 2nd install even before outlook opened it gave
the error prompt "would I like to start in safe mode"

any more suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Wondering how I can find out if old address files etc are
corrupted. And how I can turn off the "configuring outlook-
migrating account settings box"? Also where are the old
files located?
Also be advised that under start/program files/microsoft
office - there is microsoft office outlook 2003 and on the
next line is microsoft outlook 2003 (2) ?? I have tried
clicking on both (they were there before and after the 2nd
install also) Also will not start in safe mode either.
THanks again? I am baffled...
