Office 2003 requests Office 2000 CD all the time

Hi,
I have upgraded from 2000 pro to 2003 pro. During installation i took the option to remove 2000 first and then install the 2003 version.
When i use some particular option in 2003 i get requests to insert the office 2000 pro disk. Probably this is due to features which will be installed on 'first time use'. But that is strange because during installation of 2003 i choose to install all or to not install at all, not the option install on first use.

Has anybody any idea what went wrong during installation and how i can avoid the 'insert Office 2000 Pro CD' message? At least it should request the Office 2003 disk.

Thanks.

Check under Control Panel->Add/Remove programs and see if you have any
Office 2000 products still installed. Your uninstallation may have been
incomplete and thus the installer is invoked as it thinks you are trying to
use a 2000, not 2003 program.
