"Microsoft Office (any app) has not been installed for the current user"
Microsoft provided a tool(Office Removal Wizard) to completely remove all Office apps when a manual uninstall did not resolve the issue. I have had to use this many times with older versions of Office. Should be more info here:

I would also be sure that you install office as a user with admin rights and then run one of the Office applications after the install. This creates some registry keys needed for other users.

general exception
I'm an IT manager. But before that, I was a programmer. And when you are a programmer, you are that for all life! :-) By the way, I started with C and assembler language, in case you were wondering.

general exception over 1 year
I had Office XP pro (2002) working, but I started to get this message. "Microsoft Office Access has not been installed for the current user. Please run setup to install the application".
I uninstalled Office and reinstalled it completely. Same error again, with all the Office applications.
I uninstalled Office 2002 and installed Office 2003. Same error.
In Microsoft KB I found the error could be due to permission rights, but I am administrator of my machine (Windows XP), so this is not the case.
Here I found that it could be due to a pirated version, but this is a regular version (I have the original CD with the Keys) and the workaround of replacing or deleting MSO.DLL didn't work.
Can anyone please help me?

general exception almost 15 yearsI actually tried both with an original copy of Office XP PRO (OEM key) and an original copy of Office 2003 PRO (volume licence key). Maybe I have installed them 3 or 4 times, in various pc rebuilds, but I think that Microsoft gives you a much clearer message if you activate the same copy too much times....

general exception almost 15 yearsThank you for the help. Unfortunately, I already tried to manual uninstall, using the exact procedure you have described, but it didn't help. I will try the other options, but since I have solved my primary problem (I installed Access on an old W2K PC) I will do it in my spare time (which means not in the near future :-( )
