Working around the path issue was no problem. I'm a retired IT person and know my way around that stuff. What I needed was where I could download the proof.cab file as the one on my disk was corrupted. None of the 5 computers I have could read the file. Microsoft, even being aware of the problems, never offered a capability to download the file. Finally, I found a buddy with the version I was trying to install and he gave me his disk to download from. I only wish one of you had recognized the real problem and offered to send me the file. It would have saved me a couple of days of agrivation. Ving2 0 LVL 66 Overall: Level 66 MS Applications 11 MS Office
