free outlook 97 to 98 upgrade

[Steve]

Hello,
Years back I downloaded the files to upgrade Outlook 97 to Outlook 98.
When I attempt to use these files to upgrade my current installation of
Outlook 97, the program attempts to locate the upgrade files from the
Internet instead of from my computer. Of course these files are no
longer located on the net and the install fails. Any help will be
appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve

Please don't multipost. You've been answered already.

That ended long ago. You can try to contact Microsoft Support and see if
they will supply a valid link but I don't like your luck.

Thanks for your responses,
I'm not sure I was clear. I do have the install files for the Outlook 98
Upgrade on my hard drive. It's just that when I start the install, it
looks for the setup files on the Internet rather than on my computer.
Is there a way(switch perhaps)to tell the setup program that it doesn't
need to look on the Internet?
Thanks,
Steve
