Installing FrontPage 98 upgrade

S

Scott Coulson

Hi all,
I have just bought a new machine (WinXP) with Office XP.
Now I would like to install FP98 upgrade from the original CD. (I
previously had this installed on my old machine)
During the installation, I am asked to prove that I am eligible to
install the upgrade. The installation program does not accept that I
have Office XP already installed.
I have also tried referencing my Office 97 CDs (also originals) during
the installation; also with no success. Is there a special folder
which I have to select when I browse on my Office 97 CD.
Any tips would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Scott

FP 98 requires a previous full version of FP to qualify, not office.
