Office 2003 Error: A required installation file SKU017.CAB could not be found
I ran into this situation when I was installing Office 2003 on Windows computer. I was prompted for SKU017.CAB file. Here’s what the error message looked like.
If you do a search on your computer, you may not find the SKU017.CAB, especially if you have deleted the MSOCache folder to save disk space. You won’t find SKU017.CAB on the source CD for Office 2003 either. Notice that the error message is asking for Microsoft Office FrontPage 2003 CD and not for Microsoft Office 2003 CD. What’s not clear to a lot of people is that Microsoft Office 2003 Service Packs not only update the Office 2003 products but also Microsoft Publisher and Microsoft FrontPage 2003.
If you insert the source CD for Office FrontPage 2003, the Office 2003 setup will continue.
