Clip Organizer doesn't see folders

[gnorberg]

I am running Office XP on a Windows 98SE platform. When I tried to run Clip
Organizer (in Word) for the first time it only recognized my Windows folder.
All other folders on my hard drive were ignored. How do I get it to
recognize other folders so I can search them for clips?

Can you open the Organizer from start, Microsoft Office tools?
When you select add clips to the Organizer, are you selecting automatically?
Have you tried to add clips on your own and browsing to a folder on your hard
drive?
Do you have all the service packs for Office?

Please excuse me for not getting back to you sooner, Mary. Sometimes life
gets in the way of computing.

In answer to your questions about Clip Organizer:

I have the latest Service Pack (3) installed.
Yes, I can open Clip Organizer from the Start Menu
Yes, I was trying to add clips using the "automatically" option and was only
seeing the Windows directory.
I just tried adding clips "on my own", and it does allow me to browse all
directories, but I have several hundred thousand clips to add. I wouldn't be
able to accomplish it in an average lifetime, and there doesn't seem to be an
option for adding multiple clips at once.

Thoughts?
