How to install Office 97 Professional on a Windows 98 OS?

L

Learner

I tried to reinstall Office 97 Professional on my Windows 98 OS after I had
my computer reformatted. I can use MS Word but nothing else in installed
properly including the help files for MS Word. I need complete instructions
on how to reinstall Office 97 Professional. I have a 10GB hard drive with
9.53GB free space. I know there is enough room to reinstall it. Can someone
give me the instructions or point me to them in the knowledge base.

Thank you for your help.

Why can't you use any other programs? Are they installed? Do you get any
error messages? What is the exact text if you do?

Hello Milly

I tried to reinstall Office 97 Professional on my Windows98 OS after it was
reformatted. I installed it originally. Now when I try to open anything but
MS Word the message is: "The drive or network connection that ths shortcut
"Microsoft (whatever).Ink refers to is unavailable. Make sure the disk is
properly inserted or the network resource is available and then try again." I
don't know what the .Ink extension is and I'm not on a network. My
inclination is to uninstall the whole thing a nd try again.

Thanks for any help you can give.

Sounds like you installed Office to "Run from CD" instead of "Run from
Computer". If this is the case, then you can either uninstall and
reinstall, or modify your existing installation to make it run from your
computer.
