I get the message Microsoft Office 2000 premium error 1706
Hello,
This is the first time I have tried posting a question like this so apologies if this si a common questions. My search did not find anythig on this. I have MS office 2003 on my computer, previously I had MS office 2000. My operating system is XP home edition. Whenever I open a word document that ahs been sent by email I get the following error message: The feature you are trying to use is on a cd-rom or other removable disc that is not available. I then get a further error message Microsoft Office 2000 premium error 1706: This is very annoying. The MS office 2000 was on a home user license from my old employer. So I returned the disk to them when I left and upgraded to 2003 which was supplied by my new employer on a home user license. There does not appaer to be anything on the office 2003 disc that can remedy this error message. Does any one have experience of this error message and a way to resolve it? Many thanks |

Hi Dave,
Office 2003 does not contain as many apps as the Office 2000 product had, so when 2003 was installed it would have left installed any app it couldn't replace. As you no longer have the CDs (error 1706 is 'can't find the installation media/point'), which can generally indicate something is broken in the installation, you may want to try uninstalling any 2000 series app manually from Add/Remove Programs in the Windows control panel. If that fails then this article may help in manually removing the remaining files, although the method and tools vary by Windows version. http://support.microsoft.com/default...us;219423&FR=1 ======== "Fen dave" Fen wrote in message ...
