Hi Milly- When I load from the CD it comes back with "the installation
failed". Not in exact words but close. (Not at that computercurrently)

I was not aware that Office 2003 SP2 is available on a CD. Are you trying to install SP2 for 2003? Which SP2 and for what version of Office are you trying to install?

I am quite aware of this. I am trying to point out to the OP that the SP2 that he is trying to use is not for O2K3 . I am guessing that he is trying to use the OK2 SP2 CD for this purpose

Aside from an 'official' SP2 CD not yet being available,
everybody does understand that it's trivial to extract the SP2 package and
burn it to a CD-R(W)???

Very possible but it sure did not sound like that to me. Then again I can be wrong as anybody

I agree, it didn't necessarily sound like that.

However, my point is that we should pay less heed to the fact that a CD is
being used, and focus more on accepting the possibility/reality that a CD
exists, and assist the poster in solving the issue.
