Can I install "some" Office 2000 components onto existing Office installation

[Ern...]

Hi again, Milly. Since you're in a talkative mood....... just one more
question!! Sorry.

As I said in my previous message I've got Works 6.0 and Word 2000 on my
Dell. I want to add Excel, PPT, and Access 2000. You said to
uninstall Word 2000, reboot, then install the 4 item 2000 suite. Fine.

Question: in my Add/Remove area, I can uninstall Word 2000, BUT there's
also an item called "MS Works Suite Add-In for MS Word." (perhaps this
is why Word shows up as a selection item in my Works menu) Should I
uninstall this too???

I don't think I'll uninstall Works 6.0 at all -- just leave it as is.
It shouldn't be a factor.

Final comments? After this, I'll leave you alone! Thanks.

If it was me, I'd uninstall everything related to Works and Office
before installing Office 2000, otherwise you're setting yourself up for
a typical home-user mess. Note that Dell won't care if it goes wrong
though, and the only option would be the Dell restore CD which would
wipe everything and set it back to factory defaults.
