Oddly, I tried both "repair" and "reinstall," and both failed about halfway
through with a request to send an error report to Microsoft (but no
information about what the problem was.) I then uninstalled and did a
complete new install. I expecting to have to re-activate the software, but
the newly installed FP 2003 showed up as having been activated. Obviously
some activation tracking file or registry setting was allowed to persist
after the uninstall. The former problem (persistent messages about
"installing new feature" or "new component" with each use of FP) is no
longer present.

Thomas, thanks for your help.
