Office XP won't Setup

K

Ken Gash

I had some registry problems as a result of using a "registry healer".
Now, I find that I have to reinstall Office XP, but I cannot do it. I
keep getting an error message that a file called
511974.mainsp3ff.msp
cannot be located. I can't uninstall what remains of the Office
programs nor can I change them.

Please help as I have some Excel files that I need to work on.
I am using Windows XP Home, SP2.
Thanks,
Ken Gash
