Seems to work when I install the PIA:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=59daebaa-bed4-4282-a28c-b864d8bfa513&DisplayLang=en

Is that intended?

Thanks,

Hi Eschneider,


If the PIA is already installed on the machine (it should be listed as a Prerequisite for deployment) then, no,
you shouldn't need to install it again. If the .NET Framework (and thus the GAC) is already present on the
machine when Office 2007 is installed, the PIA should be installed automatically.
