Office 97 and Xp home

Sib

I am running XP Home sp-2 and have installed Office 97 pro. It works fine for
Owner/Administrator but is not available in the start menu for other users
even if they have an Administrator account. I want to make Office 97
available to all user profiles. Can anybody help?

Try to copy the shortcuts to the various Office programs to All Users in
Documents and Settings which will be located in your Named folder in
Documents and Settings.

To do this Start Windows Explorer. Navigate to Documents and Settings and
to your folder's name. Click on Start Menu. Click on one of the office
program and then hold down the Ctrl Key while clicking on the remainder of
the program shortcuts you want to copy. Once all have been highlighted
Click Edit and then Copy (or keep pressing the Ctrl key and press the C
key). Navigate to the Start Menu that is located in All Users and then once
you single click on Start Menu there press and hold the Ctrl key while
pressing the V key (or click Edit and then Paste.)

This should solve your problem.

Thankyou LVTravel. Your advice gave other users access to the use of office,
however, other users do not have access to Spelling & Grammar, Help or saving
to Global template when closing work. It seems like this might be a
permissions/workgroup problem ??????????
