Need to reinstall Powerpoint and Access from MS Office Small Busin
Connie K 6/15/2007 9:44:00 PM
In 2002 my Dell computer was ordered with preinstalled software (Microsoft
Office XP Small Business Version 2002). Later, I removed Powerpoint and
Access as I didn't think I would need them for home use and also to free up
hard space. Now I'm in need of them for projects. How do I reinstall just
those 2 programs from the CD? I don't want to mess up or overwrite current
installed programs. Please help!!!!!

Put the disk in and do a custom installation. You'll be fine if you take
your time and read everything instead of just click, click, click. ;-)

I chose "Add/Remove Programs" from Control Panel. Do I run install program
D:\Setup.exe? I didn't attempt to click it as wasn't sure if it would then
give me options of programs to install or if it would install the office
suite as a whole.

I don't see how you can choose to run d:\setup.exe from "Add/Remove
Programs" in Control Panel.

Assuming you have Windows XP, you can add Powerpoint and Access from
your Office XP CD as follows:
1. Click on Start | Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs | Change or
Remove Programs | Microsoft Office XP | Change | Add/Remove Features | Next.
2. Click on the + sign to the left of the "Microsoft Office"
category to expand it.
3. Click on the little downward-pointing black triangle to the left
of "Microsoft Access", and click on "Run all from My Computer".
4. Click on the little downward-pointing black triangle to the left
of "Microsoft Powerpoint", and click on "Run all from My Computer".
5. Click on Update.
