IE 6.0 and Access

[Guest]

Internet explorer 6.0 is corrupt on my pc. It wont uninstall, repair or
re-install. MS Access wont run as it says it is not installed even though IE
works.

I ran Upgrade from my Windows 2000 Install CD as it states that it replaces
the OS but does not change any settings or installed programs. Well guess
what: all of my Office programs will not work anymore. It says to reinstall
from my CD. My Office 2000 CD is lost. I still have the key though.

All of my Office exe files are still there but they wont run. When I double
click on the exe file it states that the application must be installed to
run.

Is there a OS or Registry entry that can be changed to tell the OS that
these programs are installed?

Or does any know where I can download replacement Office 2000 programs. I
need Excel and Access. As I said I still have the Install Key?

Regards

Well this sounds more like a Microsoft Office question more than a
Microsoft Access question. I am not sure you are going to find anyone
really well informed about your problem here. You may want to check in at
the Microsoft Office newsgroup.

However I do have a suggestion. I believe you can get a replacement
disc at a very reasonable price. You will need to call the Microsoft Office
phone number, sorry I don't have it, but it should be on their web site.

I might also suggest trying to boot into safe mode and see if you can do
some repair work from there.
