I already have the other programs installed on my computer. I just need this
one program.

As far as I know, each software component of Microsoft Office is sold
separately. You should be able to find it at the electronics/computer
superstores (Fry's Electronics, Micro Center, Comp USA, etc.), local
computer shops, or at online software shops (Amazon, eBay, Egghead, etc.).
If you are looking for a "back version", e.g., Access 2003, you may have to
find it on auction sites, etc..

Hows about changing that wording a bit. "component of Microsoft
Office can be sold separately" Using "Is" implies that's how it's
always sold.

As far as I know, each software component of Microsoft Office is sold
separately, as well as being included in various packagings of Microsoft
Office editions. Better? I'm not sure I agree with your idea that "is"
implies "always", though. Tony Toews is a practicioner of Access doesn't
indicate that you aren't also into amateur radio, or that you aren't also
into girl-watching, or ... <GRIN>

Aren't there some components that have not been available
separately? Wasn't there something called OneNote that has now been
abandoned that was once available only as part of one of the Office
suites?

The big apps (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Access) have always
been available separately, and I expect always will be, though it's
likely to be cheaper to get something like Outlook along with
Word/Excel, in one of the stripped-down basic Office suites
(whatever they're designating it these days).

I was unaware that OneNote had been abandoned. I'm running the 2007
version. And I love it. It is one of more versatile pieces of
software for tracking misc type of notes.

"In any event we are all hard at work on Office14 and OneNote14 and it
is shaping up well. "

The people down the hall from me working on OneNote would be very surprised
to hear that.

OK, maybe it wasn't. I never used it, but I think there were some of
these secondary apps from early Office suites that were abandoned in
Office 2007.

Not so much abandoned, as separated from as individual apps and included in
the Ultimate and Enterprise editions. I can't think of one app that was
available in an earlier product that isn't available today (other than
perhaps Photo Editor).
