I will try your suggestions but will not be able to do it until this weekend
as my son took the machine to school. I am having him bring it back this
weekend.
Based upon Mary Sauer's reply I checked the registry keys on a machine where
Office is working fine and the problem machine. The Software \OBDC keys were
the same on both. The Software\ODBC keys were identical except that the
problem machine has threeextra keys in the first section. Two of the extra
entires referred to a CBA thingamajig and a specific directory that was empty
on C: (C:\CBA if memory serves). I deleted those keys and tried to reinstall
and it hung again. The third entry wwa part of a Dreamweaver setup (I think
that is a program my son uses in school) so I left it there in order not to
screw up that program.
I really appreciate your taking the time to help me. I will get the Verbose
log to you sometime over the weekend.
Thanks,
Mike
