If you have a Office 97 or Office 2000 CD, you don't have to install it to
get Office XP upgrade installed.
Follow these steps:
1. Run the Setup program for Office XP.
2. Type the product key in the User Information dialog box, and then
click OK.
3. In the Product Compliance Check dialog box, click your CD-ROM drive
in the Drive list.
4. Eject the Office XP CD, and then insert CD1 from Office 2000 or
Office 97. If you are using Office 2000 Small Business Edition, insert
CD2.
5. Wait 30 seconds to allow the CD-ROM drive to spin up and recognize
the new CD that you inserted.
6. Click OK in the Product Compliance Check dialog box.
7. When the Office XP End-User License Agreement appears, eject the
previous version CD, and then insert your Office XP CD.
Note If you do not eject your Office 2000 or Office 97 CD at this point,
you receive an error message after the Office XP installation continues.
