restore programs

[Rebecca]

I accidently removed microsoft office from my computer and
I can't find the cd to put it back on. Plus I need the
old one back because it has files that I need.
How do I get this back.... I can't get my emails from
outlook!!!
Help!!!!

If you lost the cd, then you cannot, other than purchasing anew.
If Office was supplied with yr PC then its possible the files may be part of
the restore disks, or on a restore partion within the hd. Check yr
documentation or pc manu. web site help.
Be aware that some methods of restore destroy ALL data.
Yr OL emails/contacts are contained within a *.pst file, which may be a
hidden file, and may only be opened by OL.
