Microsoft Photo Editor in Office 2003?

[Fred Holmes]

Office 2000 has Microsoft Photo Editor, with executable PHOTOED.EXE,
which I have on my home machine (and use often). At work I have just
received a new machine with Office 2003 installed. I don't find Photo
Editor or anything equivalent among the installed applications. A
search on "PHOTOED.EXE" turns up zip. Is it missing altogether?
Called something else? [Probably] not installed by the IT folks who
set up my new machine? . . . ?

Thanks,

Fred Holmes

Office 2003 now comes with Microsoft Office Picture Manager, which should be
listed with the rest of your Office 2003 apps in the program menu. Photo
Editor is discontinued.

Fred Holmes,
Office 2003 includes Picture Manager (it is under Office tools) not PE.
It can be custom installed from a previous version.

MOS 2003 uses Picture Manager.

Photo Editor is removed when you install Office 2003

There have been various suggestions on this group as to how to install
Picture Manager abd there are instructions on the CD. Some recomend
installing all older versions of Office first, and I'm not sure that has to
extend to applications. I simply put in the XP CD and installed Office
Tools from XP and all the Tools from XP and Tools from MOS 2003 co-exist
with no problem. Some people have had problems. Set a restore point if you
have System Restore on your OS and you can install Photo Editor from your XP
or 2000 CD.
