Error code 0x51F – Apparently this occurs when Office Setup cannot locate the
installation source because it’s either corrupted or deleted.
Downloading the full update for Office 2003 may fix this problem.
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en
Office2003SP2-KB887616-FullFile-ENU.exe
or
Try repairing your installation of Office 2003

Method 1 – Open Word, go to Help – Select Detect and Repair

Method 2 -

1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
2. Click Add or Remove Programs.
3. Click the Office 2003 program that you want to repair, and then click
Change.
4. In the Maintenance Mode Options dialog box, click Reinstall or Repair,
and then
click Next.
5. In the Reinstall or Repair Office dialog box, click Detect and Repair
errors in my
Office installation, and then click Install.
6. When the repair process is finished, run the update again.

Most likely you will need to have your Office 2003 CD handy.
