I did the suggested action of delteing Nirmal.dot. No luck! It still happnes.
I will shut down my machine and restart. maybe it is a registry item that

After furious head scratching, HaroldSJS asked:

| When I open any Office 2003 professional Application, mostly Outlook
| & Word, I get the following message;
|
| "The global template, Normal. dot is already open as an add in
| program"
|
| I click OK (as if I have a choice) and then I receive another message
| box;
|
| "Insert a disk in Drive E:."
|
| I insert my Office 2003 Professional installation CD into the drive
| and I get;
|
| "The drive or network connection to shortcut, 06-223-02,rtf.lnk
| refers to is unavailable. Make sure that the disk is properly
| inserted or the network link is available and then try again."
|
| Drive E: is my CD/RW drive, 06-223-02,rtf is a file that is on my
| other
| hard drive and that I did not open after I installed the new hard
| drive and reinstalled Office 2003. 06-223-02,rtf is a document that I
| have on another physical drive on my machine. I recently had to
| reinstall my application software (including Office 2003) onto a new
| hard drive, due to my previous drive malfunctioning and failing.
|
| How I fix this problem and make it go away?

It would be simpler and easier to follow if you responded to the origonal
thread rather than continually createing new posts.
Of course all would be made easier for you if you used the default
Newsreader, outlook express (or Windows Mail) rather than the dreaful web
interface

Is that your fix to my problem? Look up the definition of the word "bureaucrat"
