MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - mobicreator is asking for Office 2000 and I don't have this program

The MobiPocket Forums include a forum on eBookbase, but you probably won't get an answer from there until Monday. I did not find any relevant existing threads in that forum, but perhaps I am not searching for the right terms.

Are you sure it isn't Internet Explorer that is asking for Office 2000? Perhaps this is registered as the program to use for some document types. MobiPocket Creator does require MS Word to import DOC files, but I don't know why that would matter.

One option that might help (since you have the PRC file already) is FTP upload, see Difficulty in uploading new books.
