Office 2003 SP 1 and SKU0A4.CAB

[Gordon Staley]

I've attempted to install the Office 2003 SP1 updates several times now and
I continue to get an error prompting for the original installation media and
the file SKU0A4.CAB. I've inserted the original Office 2003 CD and verified
that the SKU0A4.CAB file is there.

I went back and downloaded the full version of the update that shouldn't
require the original install CD and it
continues to fail with the same error "A required installation file
SKU0A4.CAB could not be found."

This error message also says, "Your Microsoft Office 2003 Web Components
installation source has been corrupted or removed. You will need to
download Microsoft Office 2003 Web Components again or reinstall from your
original media."

I've gone to Control Panel, Add or Remove Programs and attempted both a
repair and a reinstall of Microsoft Office 2003 Web Components. In each
case I get the same error messages as above. In both instances the original
Office 2003 CD with the SKU0A4.CAB file is in the CD drive. I've also
opened the CAB file with WinZip just to verify that it is not somehow
corrupt on the CD.

Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Gordon

Try this

1) in the Add/Remove software, un-install Office Web Component

2) on the Office CD, there is OWC11.MSI, double-clik it to install it

3) install the Office SP1

it should now work as advertise

Good Luck
