Hello:  I have Office 2K on my XPsp3Pro, including an MS Excel spreadsheet on a network drive.  I reinstalled the OS and ever since, when I open the spreadsheet, the Office 2K installer kicks in for a few seconds to install something.  I don't think anything is being actually installed, but some command is locked in somewhere to do this &quot;install&quot; every time I open the file.  How can I stop/fix this?  Repair the registry?  Thank you.© 2009 Microsoft Corporation.
