did you run the full install? if so try uninstallating and reinstalling. sounds like a dependency problem. i just installed it and made an export on my 2003 server just fine.

... if you must know, I got mine from Micrsosoft. They were so nice to give me a copy... got a few more 2003 things here too.
Hell, you should have seen the spam mail from them to get me to get office 11, it was nuts.

It's been for sale for almost a year now. It's a server operating system, not a desktop operating system (though it does that very well, and has the gay theming of XP disabled by default, a good thing IMHO). If you want to run it and are on the cheap, look at the Web Edition which can be had for around $300-400 OEM'd.
