Symptoms

When you try to use the Document Tracking Activity user interface, you may receive the following error message:
Windows has detected that this computer does not have Office Web Components installed. These components must be installed prior to setup.

Cause

Microsoft BizTalk Server 2000 Setup automatically installs Office Web Components so that you can use the Document Tracking Activity user interface without installing Office Web Components separately. In rare circumstances, the Office Web Components (OWC) may become unregistered. This can happen when you install and uninstall other Microsoft products that include Office Web Components.
