Default Installing Word on Computer with no CD drive

How can I install Word on my new mini-computer that does not have a cd
drive. I have the MS Office 2003 installation cd. All help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance, Fran

If you can borrow the use of another computer that does have a CD drive and a
network connection, you can share the CD drive over the network and install from
there.

Other possibilities include copying the contents of the CD onto a USB memory
stick, or buying an external CD drive to connect to your computer.

Jay, thanks so much. I was able to accomplish the Word install from a
networked computer with a cd drive! Gratefully, Fran
