Somebody HELP! For some reason I seem to have lost installer files from
Office 2003. When I try to update the programme online at Microsoft I
am given the reply that the windows installer update files (.MSP) are
missing. I've tried uninstalling and re-install but it doesnt help. Can
anybody help with easy step by step help? I have tried downloading the
Microsoft installer files but either I have done it wrong or dont
understand it properly but it hasnt helped.

Hi, stephen,

It sounds like you have recently done a system restore, or a cleanup and
removed patch files (MSP) from your system. If that's the case, see if this
article helps. You'll need to re-apply missing patches (which you can
download manually).

Hallo Susan and thanks for answering me. I cant find a solution to my
problem on the link you give, so heres the history of how the problem
occured:
I downloaded the trial version of Office 2003 from MS
When the period was over I decided to purchase and tried to download.
For some reason it wouldnt download so i cancelled it.
Followed the MS instructions about uninstalling 2003
Then I started getting major probs starting programmes (ExcelXP/WordXP)
Decided to purchase Office 2003 CD and installed, everything now OK
again
Tried to go online to update the grogramme and thats where I get
stopped.
MS cant get into my PC to find out which updates I need.
It tells me I dont have the MSP file.
Thats where I am today. I have installed SP1 which hasnt helped.
