I try to insert "clip art" into a Publisher document and any choices from the
first several pages alway results in the message
"The feature you are trying to use on a CD-ROM or other removable disk that
is not available.
Insert the Microsoft Office XP Media Content disk & click OK."
My system is Vista, not XP. Why would it ask for an XP disk?
I did try 2nd disk that came with my Office system but that didn't help.
Do I just resign myself to doing without 50-60% of the offered, but so far
unavailable, clip art.

Have you installed the contents of the media disk on your computer? Office XP
(2002) was the last Office suite that included a media disk, this is what your
message refers to...
You could repair your Organizer to see if that helps, the Organizer has its own
Detect and Repair in the Help Menu. If the second disk is truly the Media disk,
it should have its own setup files; direct it to *run all from my computer.*

There is also the option of creating a new MStore10.mgc file. Find the
MStore10.mgc, rename it to Mstore10.old. It is in a folder similar to this
(hidden):
C:\Users\<<user>>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Clip Organizer
