Office XP small business version 2002

[....]

I am considering installing Office XP small business, version 2002, when I
switch from Windows ME to Windows XP. I currently use Office 97 Standard
Edition. My question is...it appears to me that the Office XP small business,
version 2002 does not include power point, just Word, Excel, Outlook, and
Publisher. BUT, on the media content disc, it does mention files for power
point. I would not like to lose power point. If I install Office XP, will I
lose power point ? if, so, can I selectively reinstall Power Point 97 from
Office 97 when I am operating with Windows XP?

Office XP/2002 Small Business Edition does not contain Powerpoint. MS Office 2003 Small Business Edition includes Powerpoint.

MS Office XP/2002 Small Business Edition is an OEM only (non-retail) version that is licensed to the machine it's first activated
on. MS Office 2003 Small Business Edition is available as a retail copy that is licensed to an individual and can be moved.
