Installing PowerPoint 2000 from Office Standard into Windows XP? Daniel W. Gee 25.07.2006 17:37:03 I just purchased a Dell E310 which has Windows XP, Word and Excel 2003. I am shutting down my Compaq 4843 for which I installed Word, Excel and PowerPoint 2000 using my Office Standard Upgrade CD. Is it possible to use this upgrade CD to install the PowerPoint portion into my new system? I have historic PowerPoint files I may need to access later.

See if you can use the free PowerPoint 2003 viewer: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=428D5727-43AB-4F24-90B7-A94784AF71A4&displaylang=en -- Susan Ramlet MVP - Office Please reply to the newsgroups where others may benefit.
