Hi everyone,

I just installed Visio 2000 on my machine, and now every time I launch
Visual Studio .NET 2003, the Office XP installation dialog kicks off, runs a
process, and goes away. The dialog states "Please wait while Windows
configures Microsoft Office XP Standard". I don't know why Visio 2000 has
anything to do with Office XP.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Bob

A bug/quirk of one of the products installers. I've had the same thing
happen on several occasions. The usual fix has been to re-install one
of the packages - probably not even the one that appears to be at
fault!
