Hi and thanks -

I copied the Windows\installer files over, but that didn't do it. There
must be an office\installer file somewhere, but I can't dfind it. Since my
last post, I have gone through a numer of guyrations - but I still get the
"forms" error message referenced above

Can you tell me where the /installer folder is? My old hard drive has
enough life in it - I'll go manually copy it if I can find it.

Right where you said it is in your Note 1" x:\Windows\Installer. it's a
system folder, so you must enable showing system files and folders. In
Windows Explorer's ToolsFolder OptionsView, select "Show hidden files and
folders" and uncheck "Hide protected operating system files".
