Failure to install add-on data analysis software

[Adrian Hall]

I run windows 98 with MS Office 2000 Professional. I have
the upgrade edition, legally obtined and paid for. I have
been successfully running all applications including EXCEL
since first installing it.

I've just tried to add-in the data analysis tools and get
messages saying that installation cannot continue because
files are not found (even though I have the 2 CDs in two
different drives and can the contents thereof).

I then tried to re-install Office (I intended to try and
just add the data analysis tools with a custome install).
Now I get message saying that the installer cannot find a
valid version of the program anywhere on my system.

Can anyone help?

What files are not found? Perhaps you can locate them on the CD.

BTW, why do you have 2 CD's on two different drives? Excel/Office comes on
one CD AFAIK.

Dear GulfJim.

Thanks for your helpful reply. I am so dim that I am
ashamed. Instead of loading the Microsoft Office XP CD I
had put in (the first of 2!) CDs from Office 2000.

Your tip that Office XP is all on one CD set me searching
for the right product.

Many thanks,

Adrian
