    Microsoft Office 2000

    I have Windows 2000 with Office 2000 installed on it. When I try to access Office 2000 tools
    (Start-> Programs-> Microsoft Office Tools-> Microsoft Access SnapShot Viewer) It Displays a message.
    Message Title: Windows Installer.
    Message:" The feature you are trying to use is on a CDROM or other removable disk that is not available.

    Insert the 'Microsoft Office 2000 Premium' disk and click OK.'

    Then I need to insert the Microsoft Office 2000 CD and click OK. Why do I get this Message? I get the same message when trying to execute a VB exe program which I have built using Installshield Setup.How can I avoid this message? I dont want the user to get this message when they install my program.
    PS: Office 2000 was installed with a default Setup. In the knowledge base of MS, I got an article which says you get this message if you have specified "Run all from CD" which i have not.

    Re: Microsoft Office 2000

    In typical installation of Office 2000, some utilities/tools are not installed. For example, the snapshot viewer you tried to run is NOT installed and by default it is to 'run from CD'. That's why you got such a message. Happy new year though.
