please take note!! I am new user. I have a Dell computer and it was repaired
due to missing component. Technician cleared my hard drive and I was able to
install most of my programs. He installed Office 2000 and it is operating ok.
After that I upgraded from Microsoft OS 98 SE to Microsoft OS XP. I don't
have the disk for Office 2000. I would like to know if there is anyway to
install Office Works from my old operating system to my new one? My ISP is
Sbc Yahoo and the program is still on there, but I can't retreive it. Is
there a way to work it from Sbc Yahoo? I hope you can understand what I am
speaking about. Thank you in advance.

Hi,

In order to install Office, you need the installation media. You can't just
copy the program from one installation to another.
