Trying to set in the options of MS Excel 2003 "provide feedback with sound",
a message appears, that I have to download the Microsoft Sounds Add-in from
the MS download page. But there is a hint, that this Add-in is only up to
Excel XP and so it is not possible to install this feature. Is there any
other version for MS Excel 2003?

I installed Microsoft Office Sounds and it works in all versions from Excel
97 to Excel 2003. I didn't have to do anything special beyond selecting it
under Options. So it "should" work.

How could you install it on a system where only Excel 2003 is insalled,
because the sounds.exe checks for a version of Excel up to Excel XP. So maybe
it would work, but it is impossible to install! So I would have to install
before an earlier version to make it work... ?!
