Windows Installer

[Damien]

Thank for the info.

Can I change the regitry to look else where?

PRO11.msi is msi file that you find in Office 2003 professional edition.
by
default, Off2003 will copy the installationfiles and paste it in a hidden
folder called MSOCACHE. For any requirement of source files, it will check
the msocache folder first. However, the msocache folder will not be
created
if its installed from an Admin Install Point.
check the location under the following reg locatins. Start > run >
regedit.
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products\9040110900063D11C8EF10054038389C\SourceList....
On the right hand side, where is it pointing to ?
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products\9040110900063D11C8EF10054038389C\SourceList\Media....
On the right hand side, where is it pointing to ?
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products\9040110900063D11C8EF10054038389C\SourceList\Net
... on the right hand side, where does it point to ?

These are the locations where Office would search for any installation
files
by default.

let me know and we will take it up from there.

cheers,
Ajith

The message is that Office wants to connect to a file called PRO11.msi on
a
network drive.
