Sorry, this was *my* error - [Harold, please excuse me!] Maybe the MS WindowsInstallerCleanUp could find an irregularity with OOo installations, because you have tried to install OOo several times, but at first: Do you have checked the integrity of the download? See -> 'Using MD5 Checksums' <http://www.openoffice.org/dev_docs/using_md5sums.html> Do you have checked the version of the Windows Installer? [command line: msiexec /?] ... see also -> <http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa372866.aspx> Sorry - Manfred -- P.S. ... my version of StarOffice 8/update8 is: [680m5(Build:9221)], the same build as OpenOffice.org 2.3.0 ...
