I did a clean install of WIN XP PRO to upgrade from WIN
98 and did a re-install of Office 97 PRO. I still have
the original OEM CD, MS Certificate number and this is
the original computer I bought with the software.

The install went fine but when I try to run any of the
Office programs it gives me a message "This application
must be installed to run. Please run Setup from the
location where you originally installed the application".
I have uninstalled and reinstalled it twice and get same
message. Can anyone tell me what to try next?
 
Feel free to consult the Office experts in an appropriate Office newsgroup:
