I have same problem as scooter below had word, xl and outlook 2002 for years,
all ligitimately purchased from microsoft and never a problem - suddenly I
get prompts when opening these packages - "insert Micosoft Office XP
Professional with Front Page". Never heard of front page and never needed it.
I do not have the boxes or discs anymore. Microsoft less than helpful on call
center want to charge 13 dollars to contiinue call after they acknowlegde
that my version is a valid copy. any pointers to get rid of irratating
prompts?

I have had Excel 2002 on my computer since I purchased it. I went to open it
recently & it came up with a install box asking to insert Microsoft Office XP
Professional with Front Page. I am a licensed user and do not have the disk.
I recently took it to the computer shop for this problem & they said my
short cut was corrupt. It has happened again. How can I fix it myself?
