mso9.dll

[TimR]

When I originally downloaded Office 2000, Powerpoint was
part of the package. I have had so many problems with
the Windows Installer on my computer that I have recently
downloaded Office 2003 which does not have Powerpoint. I
isolated powerpoint from the Office 2000 and then
uninstalled 2000. Now when I try to pull up Powerpoint,
it gives me an error saying it can not start powerpoint
because mso9.dll is missing. I have found and downloaded
mso9.dll, but still can't get powerpoint to operate. Any
suggestions?

You cannot legally DOWNLOAD any Microsoft Office product other than trial
packages. That being said, check here

Do you mean that you copied just Powerpnt.exe and uninstalled the rest?
That won't work. The days when you could install/uninstall software by copying
a few files are long past, with a few exceptions.

If you try to install and uninstall software this way, you can almost count on
problems with the Win installer and a lot of other programs.
