microsoft photo editor

[jr]

Hi. I can't find out how to load Microsoft Photo Editor
onto my new computer. It came with my old computer,
probably as part of Office 97 Small Business Edition, for
which I have the original CD. I have checked the
Microsoft websites, and it appears that I should be able
to install it from that disc by doing a custom
installation, but my disc has no Photo Editor program. Is
it on the disc and I just can't find it? Or is it
somewhere else? Can I copy it from the old computer and
install it or will that not work? I really liked the
program and would like to have it on this computer.
Thanks for your help!

Just put in your Office 97 disk and do a custom install, unchecking
everything except Photo Editor (under Office Tools).

I tried that many times. My disk doesn't give me the
option to do a custom install or regular install. The
autorun program seems to be custom by default. When I put
in the disk, it automatically comes up with a window that
asks me to individually install the components, NONE of
which is Photo Editor. It has Word, Excel, Outlook,
Publisher, Small Bus. Fin. Mgr. and ValuPak. Apparently
there was some confusion over whether it was originally
supposed to be in the ValuPak, but it's not on my disk.
When I click on the ValuPak, it just opens a Help file
which is useless as it doesn't say anything about how to
install any items. Any other ideas? Thanks!
