how to access installed 'media content' ?

[abrogard]

Publisher 2002. I installed it. It came with another CD which it didn't use
for the installation.

So I installed the second CD separately - it seems it was installing 'media
content'.

But now there's no sign of this media content. Where is it? Isn't it
integrated with Publisher somewhere, somehow? How do I access it?

Beginning with Office XP (2002), most clip art is located online.

The Media CD that came with OfficeXP installs the media into the Clip Organizer.
In Publisher, insert, clipart... Or you can access the Organizer by, start,
Microsoft Office Tools, Microsoft Clip Organizer. You can place a shortcut on
your desktop, you won't be able to insert but you can drag and drop.

Is that all it is, Clip Art? How useless.
Or if it is not useless it's inaccessible on my machine it seems. The
clipart organiser or whatever it is via either of those two ways of getting
at the stuff (within publisher or from office tools) runs for yonks and then
stops with an error.

Perhaps because I've got about 700gig of hdd? Not really because I click
to only look at C:, which is 300gig I think. But maybe because it's off and
doing something before I can click anything, anyway...

Where are they installed? I t hink I should look at them in the directory
and if it is all just clipart rubbish delete the lot. Fancy that. That
second CD was about 80% full. The actual publisher CD only about 40%.

Look for a folder called Pub60Cor.

I've been there, Mary, before. There's only 12Meg in there. That CD was
about 80% full and took its time 'installing' or whatever you might call it -
downloading this stuff. I'd expect to be looking for hundreds of megabytes...

Insert Disk 2, click the setup, where does Office want to put the Media by
default? It has been along time since I installed the media, I have folders
with Microsoft clipart, the majority of which is in "My Pictures."
