Installing Publisher 2002 With Office 2003 Installed
I have tried several times to install Publisher 2002 on an XP laptop that
already has Office 2003 installed. Every time it says it installed fine, and every time I cannot locate the program or launch icon anywhere, nor does a search even say it is on my system, except that it IS there when I look to Add of Remove programs. I want to use this program - Help, please. What do I need to do?

Installing Publisher 2002 With Office 2003 Installed
Try installing Publisher in its own folder. Create a folder on your hard drive,
when prompted select the folder. I've many versions of Publisher installed, each in a separate folder. -- Mary Sauer http://msauer.mvps.org/ "KC" wrote in message ...

Nice suggestion - unfortunately it did not work when I tried that.

Installing Publisher 2002 With Office 2003 Installed
I made a 'MSoft Publisher' folder in My Documents. Should it have been
somewhere else? What does it matter?

Installing Publisher 2002 With Office 2003 Installed
Is that where you actually installed the program or is it just a folder you
created for the documents? I'm asking because my next step is to ask you if you've gone to that folder and looked for the .exe file. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "KC" wrote in message ...

Installing Publisher 2002 With Office 2003 Installed
It is where I installed the program and the .exe is not there. Frustrating -
we had an older PC die and this is needed for occasional uses but still useful to us, hence why I am trying to install a six year old program.

Use a folder on your hard drive, not My Documents. Is Publisher 2002 listed in
the remove programs in the Control Panel? The folder Publisher creates within your new folder is called Office10. -- Mary Sauer http://msauer.mvps.org/ "KC" wrote in message ...

Installing Publisher 2002 With Office 2003 Installed
To both Mary and JoAnn - yes, the product was on the older PC, but purchased
separately. I did install it in a non-My Docs folder on the new PC and, while it shows up in the Remove Programs area indicating it exists somewhere, it does not show up anywhere else, in Office10 or in the folder to which I installed it. There is no .exe. I know this makes no sense, but there you are. "Mary Sauer" wrote: Use a folder on your hard drive, not My Documents.
