I have MS office 2003. Recently I had to reload it because a got a new hard
drive and upgraded from Vista-64 bit to Windows 7-64 bit. After I did this, I now have to accept the License Agreement every time I open Word, Excel or Power Point. This didn't used to happen. I have uninstalled it and reinstalled it, with the same result. Any ideas how I can avoid this nuisance? |

Logon as Administrator and then accept the EULA.

If Doug's solution doesn't work, google for the Microsoft Cleanup
Installer Utility. Repeated EULAs/requests for the installation CDs are a primary symptom of leftover installation files that make Windows think that you are trying to install the program. D/l and install it. You only have to check for MS Office, although odds are it will find many other programs. You typically should only run it on programs that are giving you a hassle like this, not on everything it finds. On Feb 15, 4:02*pm, tomwphoto wrote: I have MS office 2003.

I am the only user setup on this computer and I am the Administrator. So this
did not make a difference.

Thanks PRR. This may work eventually. I did download and install this and had
it cleanup the 3 MS office products I have installed. However when I reinstalled them I got an error. So now I have no Word, Excel, PowerPoint. This error, #1402, said setup cannot open the registry key, gave a long list of numbers&letters and asked me to verify that I have sufficient permissions to access the registry. I'm going to bring it back to the shop that replaced the hard drive and did the Windows 7 upgrade. There's something about how they setup the administrator business that prevents me, the administrator from doing things.

Did you actually run the application as Administrator (a particular mode in
Windows Vista and 7) or did you merely assume that because you were the only user that you were obviously the administrator? -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org "tomwphoto" wrote in message news  I am the only user setup on this computer and I am the Administrator.

Graham,
No I'm not sure what you mean when you say "run the application as Administrator (a particular mode in Windows Vista and 7)". Going to Control Panel, the User accounts clearly show my name with the title Administrator. This is true in the Account name section also. Can you explain what you mean about this particular mode?

Graham,
Thank you for the link explaining how to run the application as an administrator. It was easy and it worked! For those that don't know, you right-click on the program shortcut (Word) and click on run as administrator. After accepting the license agreement one last time, I did not have to accept when it reopened the program or any time I opened another MS office program. Doug's solution of using the CleanUp utility made things harder, but with help I was able to restore back to where I was before and then Graham's solution worked. Thanks again to all for your help.
