I succesfully installing Win2K and Office 2K, then after I have installed Project 2000 Office 2000 files won't remain open. They close immediatly upon opening. (Word, Excel). Is there a patch? Or has anyone experienced this?

I ran into this same problem. If Project was installed on top of Office MS Project would crash. The solution we found was to install office first or when installing Project install it into a different directory other than the default one.

Good Luck

Problem was caused by the version of the release for Office 2000. It was a Beta copy.
Thanks anyway
