    1. When I attempt the upgrade, the pull-down for "Use feature from" asks for
    the Microsoft Office 2000 Standard CD, which I have (upgrade version used for
    original install). When I insert it, a dialog box appears saying it couldn't
    find the feature, and asks for a path to a valid data1.msi file.

    2. I checked the entries in the Add/Remove Programs window, the system has
    the following entries for Office 2000:
                                              Microsoft Office 2000 SR-1 Standard
                                              Microsoft Office 2000 Webarchive
    Add-On
                                              Microsoft Office Converter Pack

    I've already attempted to load SR-3 from the CD I received from Microsoft,
    the installation program rejected the data1.msi file provided with the
    service pack.

    What next?
