Marion, try registering the file. Go to a command prompt and type this:

regsvr32 htmlmarq.ocx

You may want to check up on Office 97 compatability with XP. There seems to
be quite a few issues with running 97 on XP. Always try Google for answers
too. If you have this problem, doubtless someone else has had it too!

Benson, XP operating and MS Office 97 are totally
compatible. I have been using 97 Office Pro and SBE version
since it came out with all the various MS operating systems.
I have had no problem except for the known Access license
issue that has been documented since 97 came out. I even
have Office versions 97, 2000, 2002, and 2003 all peacefully
coexisting on the same computer at work since I teach all
versions of the software. I have even had them all running
on the same computer at the same time (with separate
template directories so the Normal.dot in word doesn't get
screwed up.)

Almost any issues noted with the installation of Office 97
has been related to an unstable operating system.
