Harold
Thank you so much fro your informative reply to my plea for help, I
truly appreciate it.
I will look into those avenues you suggested. I appear to have some
work to occupy me for the weekend!
should all else fail, I will buy the CD, but for now, I think I will
learn more about Windows installer.
Thanks Again
Dave

Consider yourself contacted!
Thanks

First ensure that your Antivirus (AV) & firewall software is turned
off during installation. Please disconnect your computer completely
from the internet before turning off your firewall and/or AV software
and don't reconnect till they are both running properly again. Never
leave your computer unprotected when it is connected to the net.
If that fails please try the software described at
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301 to clean your system's
registry; a corrupt registry is often the cause of installation errors.
If that doesn't help check that the file you downloaded is not corrupt.
To do this, use the MD5sum checking procedure described at
http://www.openoffice.org/dev_docs/using_md5sums.html
The relevant correct values are at
http://download.openoffice.org/2.2.1/md5sums.html
If that doesn't help, you can buy OpenOffice on CD from any of the
vendors listed on a page linked to from the download page. Expect to
pay not much more than USD/GBP 10 to cover the cost of producing the
CD plus P&P. Please note that we are not affiliated to any of these
vendors and that we provide no recommendations or guarantees.
Alternatively, OpenOffice is included on many of the CDs/DVDs that
come free with computer magazines; just ensure you choose a version
that's compatible with your Operating System.
