Re: Missing PRO.MSI file

Carey, Thanks for suggestion. Tried fix from kellys korner and am still
experiencing same problem. Is PRO.MSI a file or a registry entry?

I'm using Windows XP- Pro with SP2. I've lost the ability to use Excel,
Word, Powperpoint and Access. System is looking to load a file named
"PRO.MSI". I'm unable to find the file on my PC or the original software
disc. When I try to reinstall from disk it fails and tells me a newer
version is installed. Original was w/SP1 and I susequently downloaded SP2.
Is there a fix available? Can I back out SP2 and than reload from disk.?
What will be lost?
