I am having problems installing office 2000 in Vista Home Basic. The installating starts fine but while installing it will tell me to find a random file and see if I can access it. Then it gives me two options - Retry or cancel. Cancel stops the entire install. Retry sends it thinking for some time before the same screen pops up and asks me to find the same file.
Installation of Wordperfect Office 11 gives me the same problems. Any way to fix either one? Thanks |

Did you right click on the installation file and choose run as administrator? I haven't tried to install WP11. I have WP12 and that installed/ran fine. Not sure if WP11 will. Rock [MS-MVP User/Shell] |

I got Microsoft office 2000 to install by going to control pannel, clicking on programs, and the "this program runs under an older version of Windows" option (not the exact wording, but something like that). I followed the directions using the settings for Windows 2000 and the program installed without problems. I tried the same with WP11 to no luck. I will try your suggestion later tonight. thanks "Rock" wrote:

Ok good you used the compatibility wizard to install Office 2000. Good luck with WP11. You might have to upgrade to the latest, Corel calls is X3 (for WP13). I know that is compatible. I am using WP12 with no problems. The upgrade cost to X3 is somewhat pricey. Rock [MS-MVP User/Shell] |

I would expect it to run fine, except for the Help function. I haven't gotten around to doing the fix on that yet. All functions work fine. It's at SP3 now. Rock [MS-MVP User/Shell] |
