Office 2003 in Vista Home Prem.

OK. We installed MS Office 2003 SBE in MS Vista Home Prem. 32-bit edition.
Things seem to work OK, however, whenever we open Outlook the Microsoft End
User License agreement keeps popping up, and this is EVERY time we open the
program without fail. It asks if we want to accept or decline, we click
accept and it goes away. Like I said, though, it will come back whenever we
open the stinking program again. I have done all the online updates for
Office 2003 and that made no difference, I have done the "detect and repair"
option which also has not helped. Any of you have any ideas? Thanks for
your time.

Reinstall Microsoft Office 2003 again, but this time make sure you install
it with Administrative privileges. Also make sure the latest updates have
been applied such as Service Pack 3. For Microsoft Office issues, here is an
appropriate ng for support issues:
microsoft.public.office.setup

Re: Office 2003 in Vista Home Prem.

Thanks to both of you. The solution was a bit easier than either described.
Just had to right-click on the application and "Run as Administrator" and
then accept the agreement. Closed the app, re-opened and then it worked
great. woopie.

Re: Office 2003 in Vista Home Prem.

Log in to Windows as Administrator, start an Office program, accept the
EULA, close the Office program, log out of Windows as Administrator, and
log back in to Windows using your normal user profile.

If the previous suggestion doesn't help, then see
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=884202 as Jane posted "You must accept the Office
End User License Agreement every time that you start an Office program".
