Reinstalling MS Office after computer crash

[BL]

I originally bought MS Office 97, and have since bought each upgrade as they
came out. The last time I had to rebuild my computer, I had to install
Office 97 from the original disk, then install every upgrade afterwards.
Needless to say this takes forever to get to my current version of 2003. Is
there anyway I can short cut this since I have all the licenses to 2003, is
there a CD I can order or something that will contain the current version I
have licensed so I can do just the one install?

Thanks

You don't need to install each separate version.
Start the Installation of your upgrade 2003 disk. When it asks for the
qualifying product, take the disk out and put in the full 97 disk.

You do not need to do that. Start the Office 2003 install and when it asks for a previous version put in your previous Office version and follow prompts
