Hi John

I do not know if you have resolved your ptoblem but I had the same

I resolved it by loging into the machine as the administrator then running
the applications,

This then sesolved the problem when I loged back into the machine as the user

Hope this helps

The WICU Utility you mention now specifically says not to use for the problem
if using Office 2007. I've just put in on, can't remove Office 2003 or Office
2000 and every time I do anything, up pops the Windows Installer.
Any ideas, please?
