Hi Pat....and welcome to the group....it sounds like what you have is an
Office upgrade and not a full version...in order to install the upgrade, you
MUST have an earlier version of Office, either installed, or on a CD so you
can insert the CD when the install requests it.

I would suggest you search ebay or somewhere like that for a copy of Office
97....it should be REALLY cheap.

Good luck.

Subject: [mso] Yikes, now not qualifing


Hello Group...

I'm new to this group, but not to Office.  My knowledge is in the low to 
mid-range only because I don't use office nearly to it's capacity.  But, to 
get to my situation.  Background -- Years ago I was a faithful Word Perfect 
user.  I changed jobs and they used Word so I finally switched over.  I 
purchased a competitive upgrade for my home computer.  I've never had
trouble 
installing each upgrade of Office on any new computer I bought.  Until
now... 
I got a laptop for Christmas and when I try to install my Office 2000, it 
tells me I don't qualify to install.  I got rid of my WordPerfect a long
time 
ago.  Any suggestions???

Pat
