SKU112.cab missing Timoteo 16.07.2006 18:04:01 I recently activated the Trial Verison of Office 2003 on my new HP. Was working great until I got a Virus that was detected and removed by MacAfee. Since then when starting EXCEL, the windows Installer activates and then gives an error saying SKU112.cab is missing and I need to insert the disk or select the directory where the file is located. All other Office programs are OK (Mail, Word, etc.) I don't have CD .. Trial already installed on PC when purchased. I followed HP & Micorsoft instructions to no avail .. really seems like I need the file. ANY IDEAS ? ? -- T A

Re: SKU112.cab missing "Mary Sauer" <mary-sauer[ at ]mycolumbus.rr.com> 16.07.2006 19:51:55 If you do not have the installation cd and want to solve this issue follow these steps: (works most of the time with all sku.cab files) 1. Click on start==>run==>type "excel /s" without quotations and click ok. 2. Once Excel is up in safe mode with the error message in front, hold down ctrl+Alt+Delete keys on your keyboard to bring the task manager up. 3. Click on the processes tab==>look for msiexec.exe (only the one next to your user name), click on it and end the process. 4. Excel should be running without an error message now==>close Excel in safe mode==>reopen it one more time in safe mode to check if it is opening with no error message. 5. Close Excel /s and open Excel normally, it should work fine. The above solution was previously supplied by swaidan[ at ]NOSPAM-gmail.com (Bahboosh) on other dedicated Newsgroup. -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "Timoteo" <Timoteo[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:7FEF7200-0469-4A68-B091-7218172F8E2E[ at ]microsoft.com...
