Document Imaging

Question

I am trying to install document imagining, but am unsuccessful.  The method I'm using is below:

1. Click the Start button , and then click Control Panel.
2. In Control Panel, click Programs, and then click Programs and Features.
3. Right-click the name of the Microsoft Office edition that you installed or right-click Microsoft Office Word 2007 (depending on whether you installed Word as part of Office or as an individual program), and then click Change.
4. Click Add or Remove Features, and then click Continue.
5. Under Installation Options, click the plus sign (+) next to Office Tools.
6. Click the arrow next to Microsoft Office Document Imaging, click Run all from my Computer, and then click Continue.

The process ends by stating that the the installation was unsuccessful.  I'm using MS Word 2007 and Windows Vista.

Any guidance would be great!!  Thanks a bunch,  Uncle Dewey

Answer 1

Start by repairing Office 2007, then repeat the process you have described, preferably using setup from the original installation disc. If MODI is checked, uncheck it and complete the setup, then run it again and check MODI to be available. Hopefully that should fix it.

Answer 2

Hi Graham,

I did exactly as you suggested and I now have MODI on my computer.  Now it is to see if I can edit a scanned version of a form (lines/boxes/text).  My first try I had the text, but not the lines and boxes.

Thanks a mil for your guidance!!!!  Uncle Dewey

Answer 3

Hi Graham,

Thanks for your response.  At the moment I'm a bit busy, but as soon as I get a moment I'll try to figure out how to repair Office 2007.

I'll let you know how it goes.  Uncle Dewey
