Last 2 auto updates of outlook failed to install. All other updates are
getting installed. This morning I opened outlook and clicked the detect and
repair button. After the initial dispalys, it said the operation failed. I
tried 3 -4 times again, but with no success. After this incident, now all
office applications start only after an initial appearence of the windows
installer screen, which subsequently disappears. But in the end outlook is
refusing to start now, and telling to reinstall. Please advice me as to how
to I reinstall, the entire office if necessary?

I am only a user and not familiar with setup etc. Can I simply insert the
office SBE CD and click the setup button?

Thank you
