Can anyone help me?

I recently upgraded from ME to XP. My system runs MS
Office (Outloo, WORD, Excel, etc.) 2000. Everytime I
launch one of these programs the system prompts me to
install XP Small Business. I can canel this option and
run fine. How can I stop this from happening all the
time?

Have you tried running a repair or reinstall of Office?

Greetings --

If you perform an in-place upgrade from an earlier edition of
Windows, and the Office applications were already installed, you'll
likely have to repair or reinstall them, so they can add the necessary
additional functions needed for use on a multi-user OS. It may be
sufficient to simply insert the respective installation CD and select
the "Detect and Repair" option.
