Re: Error Code: 0x57A on installing Office 2003 SP3

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hi Pa,

As I read fom the story it happened after updating to SP3 as I understand
and a rollback to Sp2 was neccesary;) So updating to Sp3 which is a windows
update issue triggered the error after the rolback to sp2;)

Hi Greta,

Try either repairing office or to remove acces 2003 by running office setup
and choose custom installation, unmark ( make it a red cross, is not
installed ) acces so it will be uninstalled and try to install it again and
see if that solves the issue?

If not it is best to seek further assistance here:
microsoft.public.office.misc

Good luck and best regards,
Michel Denie

How does this pertain to Windows Update functionality, Greta?

Try an Access-specific newsgroup instead.

any progress on resolving this error?

Hi David

I managed to install SP3 by downloading it direct then running the
install.

However ... I have now uninstalled it as it was causing problems in my
Access 2003 applications.

I installed SP3 on three PCs and have had to do a System Restore on all
three.

SP3 causes some columns of my combo boxes in Access 2003 to appear as
all
spaces. This makes it very difficult to identify the correct values to
select. I haven't found a common theme although it is primarily the
bound
column. I have tried in three
applications with a mixture of SQL 2000 and Access 2003 backend
databases
-same problem.

I have XP SP2 on all machines but it is apparently also a problem with
Vista.

Any idea when this will be fixed as a lot of users with Windows Update
configured to download and install automatically will not be happy.

Hi Kevin,

This error typically indicates some form of registry corruption or
interference. If the error continues to occur after restarting your
computer, you may need to reinstall the Office 2003 programs. Registry
corruption may be caused by some registry cleaning programs, by
viruses,
or by simple disk corruption, among other things.

Let us know if you continue to have issues installing the service pack.

Thanks,

I downloaded the Windows update today which included Office 2003 SP3
which failed with Error Code: 0x57A.

I only have Excel 2003 and Access 2003 installed and the full Office
2007.
I need the 2003 versions to support clients. I also have Access 97
installed.

Any clues?
