Why can't FP2003 find Office2003 during installation

[Guest]

I have MS Office Professional Edition 2003 (Home Use Program) and am trying
to install MS Frontpage 2003. I keep getting the message that 2003 cannot
find Office 2000, 97, or XP and to select the drive or insert the CD. I've
tried both of these and FrontPage still will not install. Has anyone else had
this problem and how did you get around it? Help!

Office Professional 2003 does not include FP 2003
- you are installing an upgrade edition of FP 2003 so it is looking for a qualifying installed prior version of FP

Thanks, this was exactly it. Once I loaded Office 2000, installed FP 2003,
then re-installed Office 2003, it worked fine.
