You can't get the help files by any re-installation of Office that I know
of. I tried everything but didn't succeed.

Ah! That looks like it! Micro$oft does it again eh? No wonder no one
trusts them anymore! Why in heavens name should a security upgrade delete
a help file unless it is a greedy grab for more business when people lose
the functionality of perfectly good software.

I have XP and I notice that it frequently updates itself. That'll almost
certainly be what happened.

Now I just love my Office 2000 with SR1 (supplied by Jay) and do NOT want
to 'upgrade'. Reading all the troubles people have had withb later
versions of Word.

So can I just reinstall using 2000 from my original discs? Or could I
perhaps find the help file and just copy that, do you think? BTW I use it
for an email and news client too.
