Cannot find share.exe

[maestes]

I'm trying to assist a friend with re-installing Excel.
He has a old version of Excel (doesn't know for sure -
possibly 97) and is running Windows ME.

He previously had this installed but ended up
reformatting his system. He's now going back trying to
re-install his software.

He starts to install Excel using the licensed
installation disks but gets an error, "Cannot find
share.exe on system".

Can anyone tell me how to fix this? Is it just a matter
of getting a copy of this file? Where does it belong?
Etc.

Any advice would be appreciated
