I have the Office Enterprise 2007 DVD (part of the Microsoft Action Pack Subscription). I installed all the features of Office 2007 except Outlook. I opted not to install Outlook when I first loaded Office 2007 several months back, but now I would like to use it as, after running some demos, I like many of its features. I went to install it and when I get to the install section on the DVD, the red "X" shows Office 2007 is "Not Available." The machine I am loading this on is a stand-alone office PC. The articles from Microsoft tell me I need to run the OCT. I went to run the OCT, however, I cannot get it to work. Is it possible that because this is being loaded on a stand alone and not on a server, the OCT won't work? If that's the case, is there another way to solve my problem? In reading these forums, I am close to solving my problem, but I am not there yet. Most of the solutions appear server based. If the OCT works on both stand-alone and networks, here's where I seem to be missing something based on what I have read here: 1. I try to run the OCT, but when I do, I get the following error message: "Files necessary to run the Office Customization Tool were not found. Run Setup from the installation point of a qualifying product." What do I need to do to fix this error? 2. In my reading of these forums, many have mentioned an admin folder on their CD. My DVD doesn't have an admin folder. Where do I get this folder or how do I create one with the files I need? Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Tom

Hi everyone. Just found you guys while researching an answer for an install question. Glad I found the board. Look forward to discussing things with you. Tom
