posting board and look what it did!

This same thing sort of happened to me. My resume and Microsoft Word 2004 were mysteriously deleted off my Mac after posting online. I need to know how to get Word back without my install disk.

The only way to get Word back is to buy another install disk. Or pound the
hell out of whoever has gotten yours until they give it back

However: Watch this space: Microsoft is about to release Online versions
of Office 2010. That will run in any browser equipped with
Java/Silverlight, and may be sufficient for your needs.

Test versions should start appearing any month now.

Hope this helps
