Windows Installer attempting to load in Excel
 
When attempting to open Excel document, a Windows Installer box pops up
preventing me from opening the document. Need to get rid of this box asking
me to "load" something in Business 2003 which I do not have nor want.

Best to re-register Excel.

Try this first.

Close Excel first and On the Windows Taskbar

1) StartRun "excel.exe /unregserver"(no quotes)OK.
2) StartRun "excel.exe /regserver"(no quotes)OK.

See the space between exe and /regserver

You might have to designate a full path to excel.exe.

In that case StartRun "C:\yourpath\excel.exe" /regserver(quotes
required)OK
