From: TBear on 13 May 2008 13:57 I trialed Visio 2007 and then removed. It took items from my Office Pro 2003 including Picture Manager. I cannot repair or reinstall office. Receive message: "This patch package could not be opened. Verify that...blah-blah". Is this going to be a remove, re-install, patch,....... Any help or ideas would be appreciated. TBear

From: TBear on 13 May 2008 16:02 I ran the install clean script and rebooted. Same "This patch package could not be opened" error message no matter whether I tried repair, control panel, or disk. The only change made in the last month was installing the Visio trial and then removing it. No problems until then.

From: Mary Sauer on 13 May 2008 16:45 In this situation it is usually the installer that cause the errors. I don't know what you mean when you say install clean script, do you mean the cleanup utility? Did you check off Microsoft Office Professional 2003 in the Cleanup menu? -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "TBear" <TBear(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:D55ADC26-FEC3-4770-92C8-D67992D3B2FB(a)microsoft.com... >I ran the install clean script and rebooted.

2nd time was charm. Worked. And Pix Mgr is back after the re-install. I don't know why my feeble brain did not think of the Install Cleanup.
