Default Cannot install Office 2003 on Server 2008.

I haven't installed office for a while so maybe I'm trying to run the wrong
setup program.

I have just set up Server 2008.

I am trying to install Office 2003 by running OSE.EXE in Files\Setup on the
CD.

The program will not run.

Any ideas?

What's wrong with running Setup.exe in the root folder on the CD? That is
what should be run.

Correct - I did not see it before and went off looking for another EXE.

I was in a bit of a rush..

We all rush and miss the obvious at times. (BTW, sorry if my original
response sounded a little condescending. Didn't mean it to be.)
