Hi Shawngd,
Office 2000 is having facility to install some component on first use, so office will not fully installed if you go for typical installation of office, that's why it will show you installation window again when you start other application that requires office components.
bye
and jendrix,
you keep listening only

hi vijayneema,
Thats a good justification, but what do u have any idea why the office components would be required when i run a VB application, as there are no components to my knowledge that are associated with the project that has interface to office products.

The Project uses these References
--------------------------
Visual Basic for Application
Visual Basic RunTime Objects and Procedures
Visual Basic Object & Procedures
OLE Automation
Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0 Extensibility

and these Components
--------------------

It is because your application requires using some components of office 2000 and that must also be installed on your new machine.
First install office 2000 and then install your application it will work fine.
