Programs Lost - Reinstall ?
I have the following certified disks; some installed on an older laptop I now
use as a desktop: Windows: 95; 95 & Plus; 97; 98 upgrade; ME; XP Home Edition. (Purchased this computer with ME, Small Business Financial Manager, Office 97 installed; current op. system is XP; Office is 2000; other, older computers cleaned, reformated and discarded.) Office: 97 (Professional edition); 97 (Small Business edition); 2000 (Small Business - Disks 1 & 2) Word: 97 I've lost use of Programs I used to access through Toolbar Shortcuts, including Publisher, Access, Kodak Imaging, Small Biz Fin'l Mngr, etc. Have attempted to reinstall Publisher recently from disk. No luck. "SHELL.DLL missing" error. Would like Publisher plus most of the other useful programs back. Plenty of disk space and sufficient speed. Search of hard drive yields Temp Folder and some other files, but in Publisher, .exe doesn't do anything. Using MSFT Update on the web identifies only 2000 Office programs. (Btw, have good download speed through Clearwire.) How can I fix? I don't mind using older versions of some programs. Thanks in advance!! |

Posting the same question in different newsgroups will not help you. Stick
to one newsgroup at a time or if you *really* think it will help, cross-post. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "Help Wanted" wrote in message ...

Ok. Thanks. This is my first time asking for help here, and I wasn't sure
which of the two was the right group for posting. Do you know how to get all the programs back and operating?
