Powerpoint Installation

[Josh]

I purchased a Dell with Microsoft XP Small Business. I
am unable to run Powerpoint. The product info shows it
should be installed with MS XP Small Business. I'm
unable to successfully find or load from the two CD's
provided. Any suggestions on how to get it operational?

Josh,

Did you get a response, as yours was attached to another message here and
got lost.

PowerPoint does not come with Small Business:

You may, however, be eligible to various upgrade options for the new version
depending on when you bought it:

Small Business 2003 *will* contain PowerPoint.

Thanks Glen. That was VERY helpful, and so were the
links. I understand now, and will follow the
advice/directions on the web link you provided. Your
help is greatly appreciated.

You know, we're gonna have to update those FAQs now that 2003's coming
out. Especially since Office SBE 97/2000/XP are on the upgrade
qualifying list.

Looks like you can use the PPT 2003 upgrade to add PPT 20 Office Small
Business Edition 97/2000/XP for $109. That's pretty cool.
