Try running setup by double clicking PRO11.MSI or right click
it and choose "install" menu. Not sure why this problem occurs, but I
suspect it's due to another wizard/wrapper that launches with regular setup and
asks to click "finish" after installation is finished. Regards..

Hi Mary,

FWIW, the poster mentioned that he had the Standard Edition of Office 2003, so probably won't find the PRO11.msi file <g>.

Generally, due to the way that MS constructed Office 2003 installing directly from a .msi file isn't recommended. The Office setup
program should be used.

The missing cab files error often comes from having a damaged Local Installation Source (MSOCache) set.
