Wanna run 2 versions

install 97 first, then 2003 - however, you will only be able to use outlook
2003. The other office apps should work just fine, save for the default
shortcuts. You'll need to create ones for 97 yourself... double clicking
files will open in 2003.

Yes, if you let the installer run it should fix it.

Office 97 disks

Corinne,

Are you likley to do any serious computing tasks such as Backups and all
that? If so then your $60 or so would be better spent buying an external
CDRW which can be run from your USB and/or Parallel port. USB versions
are quite cheap these days and buying one of these would not make a big
dent in your bank balance.

If your machine hasn't got a USB port then you need to get one which can
be connected to your Parallel port. Micro-Solutions have backpack
versions. Try this link:

Unfortunately, Office97 is not used widely never mind using floppy disks
to install modern programs!

Transfer from laptop to desktop

You might also need a better cable, such as one of the "smart" parallel
cables. When I first attempted what you're trying to do, that was the only
cable that would work for me.

properly!. What you need is first to decide which of the computers will be
the Host and which will be the Guest. The Host is one that will allow
incoming connection and the Guest is the one that will access the Host
computer. In 
your pictures. 
on the label "Create a new connection". Click Next to select the Connection
type from the screen. Select "Set up an advanced connection" and click
Next. Now choose the radio button labelled "Connect directly to another 
click Next. You will now be asked what device you wish to use to make
connection. In your case you will need to select the appropriate
Communications port i.e. the one you have connected your null serial cable.
The port should 
one from COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4. 
need to select Guest on it indicating you want the Guest to connect to this
computer. 
"My Computer", Properties, Computer Name. Jot it down somewhere so that you
don't forget it as this will be needed at the next stage. 
except that you will select Guest at the appropriate stage. When you click
on Next button you will be asked for the connection name. Type the name of
Host computer which you noted above. 
desktop of Guest computer. Do this and double-click on this short cut to
activate the connection. When both computers recognise each other you may
be prompted for Username & Password. For Guest access just click connect 
indicate Host "name" is connected. Now use Network Neighbourhood to browse
the Network and/or share files. This should take a minute to transfer the
files; definitely not 17 hours as if flying to London and back!! 
"transfer wizard". i am using 9 pin serial cables for both. When I run it,
it tells me that it will take approx. 17 hours to transfer. The transfer
never completes. Does anyone have any ideas as to why this might be
happening. 

Hotmail Accounts

Yes I have tried to delete and recreate the profile same problem. The error
message I get is "a connection to the server could not be established. It's
now offline or something of that nature."

Everything else works fine until you try to add more than one hotmail
account.
