Provide Full Application Download for Outlook98

[Guest]

I've been using Microsoft Office 97 Professional with the Outlook 98 upgrade
for a number of years. It has all the capability that I need. Recently, due
to a hard drive problem, I was forced to reinstall the OS and Office. When I
ran the program that I'd downloaded to upgrade Outlook 97 to Outlook 98, it
failed to connect to Microsoft's download server to download the rest of the
application.

I realize that Microsoft no longer supports Office 97. However, is there
someplace where I can download the full installation package for Outlook 98
that I can maintain locally for future installation upgrades, should I be
required to re-install Office, again?
