I have installed Office 97 & Outlook 98 on a Windows 2000 Pro desktop with SP2 installed.
I have no problem when I am logged on as administrator.
When I log on as the user I am configuring the desktop for, I run into several problems. All of the problems appear to be permissions related because the problems go away when I make the user part of the power user group and reappear when I take them out of the power user group.

The problems are:

I receive VB script errors when trying to run the excel add-in's.

I can't start the Internet connection wizard.

Every time I try to open Outlook 98, I receive an error message. "Outlook.exe has caused an application error. The program will terminate". This logs a Dr. Watson 4097 error in the application event log.

The first two problems I have found a work around for, but the third problme has me completly stumped.

Has anyone had similar problems with Office 97 or Outlook 98? Or any suggestions?

I do not really want to make my users into power users. I currently use NT 4.0 with Office 97 and Outlook 98 and do not have any problems with the permissions.

Thank you,
Kes
