error "Setup.exe is not a valid win 32 application" When i..

I just bought office 2003 professional. I am tryin to load it onto my Vista
Laptop but the cd will not autoplay and takes forever to lead in My Computer.
Once it does load I gives me an error message when I run the Autoplay and
after I enter the CD key that says "setup.exe is not a valid win 32
application." Please help me how to I install this on my vista laptop? Can I
use my cd key on a downloaded office 2003 trial version if It wont load?

thank you

kal0003,

Going to suggest you scroll a wee bit further down in the Microsoft
interface to the Office newsgroup. This newsgroup is for the set-up of
Microsoft Access a database program.
