Can I install Office97 on Windows XP?

[Jay]

Subject says it all.

My old computer's hard drive with Windows 98SE crashed.
Computer was old enough decided to reward mysely with new
computer which came with XP. I don't really want to give
Microsoft any more money but I want to reinstall Office97.
I can't seem to get there. Is there a dll that I need?

And the error msg is?

Office 97 will run just fine on Windows XP.

Occasionally, after installing Office 97 on Windows XP or Windows 2000, a
user
may receive the following message: "Microsoft Access can't start because
there is no license for it on this machine." This problem is due, of all
things, to a font. The fix for that problem, should it occur, is found at:
