my office 97 won't work

[Sheba53]

There you go I told you I wasn't real smart on the pc side of things, does
this mean I will have to buy another office program for my lap top ?
oh! what does OEM version mean. thanks again for your patient with me.

No guarantees tho. I've never used this site so download anything with
extreme caution.

But I also agree with Peter that it probably is an OEM version and therefore
you can't use it on another computer. It dies with the original computer.

The error message is saying " Htmlmarq.ocx " was unable to register itself
in
the system registry.
I was given a disc and my cd code when I got my pc in about 1999 and have
had to reload to my pc 6 times now with no trouble, upgrades to my pc. and
that kind of thing.

Exactly what does the message say. We need specifics to help you.

And out of curiosity, did your version of Office 97 come preinstalled on
your desktop?

It installs all the way and at the end it comes up that it can't
install
one
of the files.
I reinstalled the program many times on my pc. Why not on my laptop?

No. The link I posted seems to have that file available as a download.

OEM = Original Equipment manufacturer. This means that the software came
from your computer manufacturer and not purchased at some place like Office
Max or Amazon.com. When software comes with a computer, it is only licensed
to that computer. This could be why you can't install it on another
computer. Does the CD label say anything about being an OEM?

I have Office 97 installed on a new XP laptop. First make sure there
are no Office trial versions installed on the machine. I deleted
mine.

Next, when installing do the custom installation. Do not use the
standard or express installation. Select the components that you want
installed. Make sure that the html editor for Word is not checked.
This is what is causing your problem.

Do a search for installation problems with Office 97 and Windows XP.
That is where I got my solution and it can be explained in further
detail.

Hope this helps,

This is what is causing your problem.

Do a search for installation problems with Office 97 and Windows XP.
That is where I got my solution and it can be explained in further

I have Office 97 installed on a new XP laptop. First make sure there
are no Office trial versions installed on the machine. I deleted
mine.

Next, when installing do the custom installation. Do not use the
standard or express installation. Select the components that you want
installed. Make sure that the html editor for Word is not checked.
