Office 2003 Update problems

[Anthony C]

Hi!

I have an interesting problem, my Office programs (Office2003) all keep
having installation problems. Whenever I try to use update, add/remove
or use 'Detect and Repair' I get an error message from Windows
Installer....

" The installation source for this product is not available. Verify
that the source exists and that you can access it."

I have tried all sorts to fix this problem, updating windows installer,
reinstalling all the Office apps (this can only be done after using the
Windows Install Cleanup Utility!!) but the problem remains. I suspect
kb921566 of playing a part in this but of course it wont uninstall!
Listool is useless it just generates another crazy error and can't run.

Anybody any ideas? Please?

Thanks in anticipation!

Anthony

You might want to post this to the Office newsgroups. If there are any issues with an update they would be more likely to be aware of it.

Here is a list of all the MS newsgroups so you can find the right one:

Thanks for the tip. Still no nearer a resolution though. it seems to
affect other apps too. Those that use the windows installer!!!
