Thanks for your help.

This is the volunteer support group for OpenOffice.org's *free* product
OpenOffice. The latest version is 2.3. There is no such thing as a
"2007"
version.
"Office Suite 2007" sounds like a Microsoft product, in which case
please
complain to Microsoft.
On the other hand, the problem you explain seems to be yet another
instance
the well known "Microsoft Installer" problem which has nothing to do
with
OpenOffice but which this group sees frequently. A possible solution is
at
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
If you are actually trying to install OpenOffice and if the above
solution
does not help, come back here with details of:
which version of Windows you are using and which version of OpenOffice
you
are trying to install.
There are no "updates" to OpenOffice; for technical reasons each
"update" is
issued as a complete new version which must be downloaded in its
entirety.
You can get the latest at www.openoffice.org - press the big green "Get
OpenOffice" button and then the choose the correct version for your
operating system.
Harold:
Here is the eBay link for "Office Suite 2007" and other assorted
software. It even looks like you can pay for Microsoft's viewers.
Buyer Beware!

Tom,
Thank you but what is it? And what has it to do with OpenOffice? If I Google
"Office Suite 2007" (in quotes) I get details of a *Microsoft* product. What
am I missing, please?
Harold:
It is OO 2.3 repackaged as Office Suite 2007. I had to hunt to find it,
as most of the results were for MS Office 2007. Google had a link on
the fourth page of a search.
