Thanks. I gave it a try, but it did not help. I get this message error when I'm trying to add a feature, or fix and repair any of the ms office xp professional programs.

Here's an MS site, it's a bit long, check which apps it applies to at the bottom of the page and see if it's one of the one's your having problems with before you try the cure. http://support.microsoft.com/defaul... MIKE http://www.skeptic.com/

I previously read that one and all was ok. I was doing some reading and I'm wondering if I'm having this problem because not long ago I had my computer set up on a wireless network with another computer. But I got rid of that set up and now my computer is just hooked by itself. Could there be something I need to change in the registry because it is no longer networked with another computer? Thanks

From everything I'm reading about the error, it is a Registry problem. How it was caused, I have no idea, but it could very well have been the switch from wireless to none wireless. Doing another Google search brought up another possible solution, see here: http://windowsxp.mvps.org/msi1606.htm Sorry can't be of more assistance. MIKE http://www.skeptic.com/
