I'm a compute novice when it comes to installing components. So you'll need
to spell each step out. When I open Excel it asks me for "Microsoft Office
2000 Premium," for that "Data.msi" file. The other Office programs oen up
fine it's just Excel. Thanks in advance.

Just insert your CDs when it asks for the file and it will be fine. It's
just looking for an original file during an update

First of all thanks for responding. But now the problem is, the computer was
bought as a package (Dell), so I have all these backup CD's but none of them
say "Microsoft Office 2000 Premium" on them. So I don't know which one to
put in the drive when I get asked.
Thanks again
