That seems to have worked perfectly. I downloaded and installed a trial copy from Microsoft. All seems to functioning at this point. I'll keep my fingers crossed. My troubles began when I took the advice of a local techie I can usually trust.
The aforementioned techie recommended that I purchase the PC with Office Home and Business pre-installed, then install only MS Access from the installation disk for that product and using the Activation Key from that disk. I did as he suggested, and everything seemed to play nice together at first. Gradually, however, problems developed. The first sign was when the icons for the shortcuts for the Office components suddenly displayed as generic "system" icons.
Deleting the Windows icon cache and allowing Windows to recreate it didn't help. Thinking my installing Access might be the root cause of the flakiness, I went to the Programs and Features control panel and uninstalled the Microsoft Office entry.
That was when things really went haywire. When I tried to launch any of the Office components, the installer program tried to launch, and it eventually hung and I had to kill the process with Task Manager. Trying to repair the installation using Programs and Features resulted in the "Error applying transforms. Verify that the specified transform paths are valid" error message I described in my original post.
I've since read that that error message is a byproduct of purchasing pre-installed copies of Office from PC vendors. Thanks again for the assist; hopefully, the full re-install using the downloaded copy has undone the confusion and I can get back to enjoying my new PC. Now can anyone suggest a program other than MS Access that can open an Access database?
