1st time XP user, MS Office only apperars in admin acct

[Steve]

Does this mean I can only use Excel and Word as the administrator? All
the rest of MS Office shows up in the limited user accts. (Outlook, office
tools, etc.)

I fear I may have screwed something up when I first turned on the
machine. I dragged Excel and Word from the program list to the desktop to
make shortcuts(I know there's another way!). Now, in the program list, in a
limited user acct, Word and Excel are missing and the icons that are on the
Admin desktop don't appear on the limited user acct. All my efforts to get
them back on the program list and then to show up in a user acct have
failed.

Does anybody know how to fix this?

You dragged from C:\Documents and Users\All Users\Start Menu\Programs

Right-click on the shortcut and paste it in the above folder.
You can also add the Office Shortcut bar to the Start Menu | Taskbar.
