Excel and Powerpoint

I am running Word 97. And don't have either Powerpoint or
Excel. Can I add Excel and Powerpoint?

You can, if you have them.

Adding is named 'installing'. If you have Word with Works, then you don't
have them. If you have a MS Office installation disk, then you can add them.
If you don't, you'll have to purchase the full Office suite (Office
standard). Office 97 may be available from resellers, current versions are
XP and 2003. If you'll find Office 2000 from a reseller, it'll do nicely for
your needs (and you can upgrade Word). We don't know your Windows version;
latest versions of Office do not work with older versions of Windows.

You'll need some hard disk space free.

Find your Office installation disk, put it into your CD drive. If
installation does not start automatically, go to Start-Control
Panel-Add/Remove Programs, find Microsoft Office and proceed as directed in
the dialog box and the follow-up dialogs.

You have to close all open files, antivirus, firewall, net connection, all
'open' programs (shiwn with buttons in the taskbar). It is best to close
everything shown in the task manager box (ctrl+al+del), except esplorer,
systray and rundll32.
