Hi. I sussessfully downloaded the 2 files for the 2007 office trial. Both to
the desktop. However, I cann ot open or run the X12 file however I try. Ive
tried downloading it again but the same thing happens. Nothing!! They've both
downloaded as applications but the desktop symbals are different. Im running
on XP . Any suggestions please.
Thanks

OK. But one file is described as a 'self extracting cabinet' thats a file
called x13-11296 . The one that I cant open is described as X12-30196 and its
desktop icon is a PC with a CD box! Adding .exe to this doesn't seem to have
helped. Sorry.
