title: Avoid Microsoft Office 2000 Installation Prompt When Opening VB6 Project File or Dialog
body: <p>I suddenly am tasked to debug an old project in Visual Studio 6. My PC setup contains an IME Microsoft Office 2000. Each time I try to open a .VBP file using Visual Studio, a Microsoft Office 2000 Installation CD dialog is shown. I could cancel the installation process but it does get bother some in repeating this again and again. I found a Microsoft Windows Installer Cleanup in the Microsoft KB page but it does not work. Any ideas for people who experienced this with Visual Studio 6 and Microsoft Office?</p>
  
  <p>I cannot uninstall the MS Office. Are there any registry hacks for smooth VB programming?</p>
