If you can't find the Microsoft Office 2000 or Microsoft Access 2000 component you need and Windows installer doesn't automatically install it, you can install the component yourself. If you originally installed Office 2000 or Access 2000 from a network file server, run that copy of the Setup program.

  1. Quit all programs.

  2. Click the Windows Start button, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.

  3. Double-click the Add/Remove Programs icon Aa831410.addremov(en-us,office.10).gif.

  4. Do one of the following:

    If you installed Access by using the Office 2000 Setup program, click Microsoft Office 2000 on the Install/Uninstall tab, and then click Add/Remove.

    If you installed Access individually, click Microsoft Access 2000 on the Install/Uninstall tab, and then click Add/Remove.

  5. Follow the instructions on the screen.

    Learn about the location of components in the installer.

Notes

  • If you installed Office or Access from a CD-ROM, and you have mapped your CD-ROM drive to a new drive letter since you originally installed Office or Access, run Setup again from the CD-ROM. If you are running any Office or Access files from the CD-ROM, you must either re-map the CD-ROM drive to the original drive letter, or uninstall and then install Office or Access again from the CD-ROM.

  • If you want Access 2000 and Access 97 to co-exist on your computer, when you install Access 2000, you must choose a folder other than the one you installed Access 97 in; otherwise, Access 97 will be replaced.

  • Microsoft Data Engine (MSDE) is not part of Office or Access Setup, but you can install MSDE from the CD-ROM or network file server by running Setupsql.exe, which is located in the \Sql\x86\Setup folder. Learn about using MSDE.

  • If you want to re-install Microsoft Internet Explorer 5 or upgrade to it, you can install it from the CD-ROM or network file server by running Ie5setup.exe, which is located in the \Ie5 folder.
