Eduardo already said that he uninstalled Office some years ago, and may not wish to reinstall it to go through this procedure. I would say that these two files didn't come with the OS, and therefore the OS shouldn't miss them if they are deleted. Using a rusty Amiga 4000T, a shiny PowerMac G5, & a homebuilt Ubuntu box We are healed from suffering only by experiencing it to the full. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
