Hi Marcus,

Sounds like a corrupted MSI database on your Windows OS, a messed up installation registry entry, or something got deleted from MSOCache on your Windows drive that shouldn't have been. As far as I know SAP interactive Excel isn't one of the prerequisites for VFP9. LOL

In any event, there should be a cancel when the install for SAP Interactive Excel comes up that you should try clicking... it may take a few times to get it to go away but they usually do. That however will not keep this from happening again the next time you go to install something that validates the MSI installs on your box. You may end up having to back up your registry and then do a search for SAP Interactive Excel and see if you can find any data values that have references to SAP Interactive Excel and its uninstall directory in them and delete the offending keys that they are contained in. You might also try Windows Install Clean Up utility...

If you happen to have an SAP interactive Excel install CD lying around you might give that a go as well to repair the problem or uninstall the application.
