HtmlSelect Error message with FCKEditor

I received an interesting error message recently. While trying to save a content area from FCKEditor in an ASP.NET web application, the following exception was displayed:

An HtmlSelect cannot have multiple items selected when Multiple is false.

After a couple quick minutes of debugging, I found out that the SQL insert statement included a column that had been deleted from the table. Once I removed the reference to that column, *poof*, the funny HtmlSelect exception disappeared. Funny!

Office Trial Does Not Install: There was a problem setting up Microsoft Office...

Wow, this is strange. Apparently, Microsoft uses a quick-install that uses the Q drive. I got this error message when trying to install Office:

"There was a problem setting up Microsoft Office Home & Student 2010: There
was a problem setting up Microsoft Office. Try running Setup again. If the
problem continues, contact Microsoft Product Support."

This link showed me the way: http://brianmorristech.com/?p=484. I went back to the download page, clicked on "Advanced" and am now downloading the full version. Yay!
