Excel 2007

[Steve G]

I am having problems opening Excel 2007. I have Windows XP but with new
Office 2007. Every time I try to open Excel it tries to install Windows XP
again. After canceling 3 times everything is normal agin, howevr, this is
getting frustrating.

Any Ideas!!!!!!!

Specifically what is the error message you're getting? I suspect it is not
*Windows* XP that it's trying to install.

That is not trying to install Windows. It's Office XP. That specific edition
of Office was an enterprise verion that was a widely pirated edition before
it was officially released. If you have the genuine Microsoft disks, inert
the Office XP disks in.

I am sure I still have the disks, however, as I am now using Office 2007, and
I have deleted all of XP, why insert the old ones?

If you had deleted all of Office XP, it wouldn't be prompting you.
