installing MS Query tool
This was posted on Saturday to alt.windows98.
And again I shake my head and ask why people get off their ass and do a little bit of leg-work to figure out what the most USEFUL newsgroup to post to (which in this case because of a lack of traffic, is not alt.windows98). Binaryx wrote: does it possible install Office 2000 additional feature without installation program? I've tried in the (distant) past to install (or do something) with office 2k and have tried to point it to the msi file it was looking for (install.msi? setup.msi?) but it never seemed to work. But in the end it didn't really matter because I have the full set of office 2k premium SR1 cd's (from 1999 through 2002 MSDN). I want install MS Query on Office 2000 Premium, but have no Office installation CD anymore. I can upload either the msi file (you tell me which one) or the entire office 2k premium SR1 cd to a file locker if you want to download it. You'll have to come back here and let me know if you want it. Is there way install it manually? Or someone else can post an answer to that question. But I highly doubt that anyone here has much (or any) experience with Office 2k. |

Just out of curiosity, what would the "leg-work" entail in your opinion? For example, say I want to post a question or comment about "widgets". Let's say that I'm not already reading groups pertaining to widgets, so offhand I won't know what groups exist that talk about or focus on widgets. In my usenet client (netscape communicator 4.78) I'll right-click on the NNTP server I'm using and select "subscribe to new newsgroup". I'll click on the "search" tab and enter a keyword - in this case "widgets". I will then get a list of all newsgroups containing the word "widgets". I'll scroll through the list and put a checkmark beside any of them that look relevant, then hit OK. The new groups will be added to the end of my list of currently-subscribed groups. I will then click on each group to have my reader download the list of headers that the server has for those groups. I will remove any group that has no posts. Of those groups that are left, some might have a handful of posts, some will have dozens of posts. Because the server I use only allows cross-posting to (at most) 3 groups, if my short-list of widget groups exceeds 3 then I'll have to decide if I want to make multiple posts of my question and cross-post them across those groups (crossposting to 3 at a time). If my group-name keyword search doesn't result in any useful results, I will resort to the google-groups search interface and try to determine what could be useful groups based on the search results. I'll then add those groups to my netscape subscription list. That's the strategy I use to post a question (or comment, etc) to groups that I don't regularly follow. If the topic is sufficiently important to me, I'll keep those new groups in my subscribed list for an extended period of time (so I can easily see any replies) or just see what else is posted that I might be interested in. If over time I find that I've lost interest in the new groups, I'll remove them from my subscribed list. |

Why not update?? (was:- installing MS Query tool)

Snip In my usenet client (netscape communicator 4.78) I'll right-click on the Snip Hey, 98 Guy, is there any particular reason that you are still using NC 4.78?? I used to use NC 4.78 on my Win98 Desktop, but then, over time, I upgraded to Mozilla Suite and then (when Mozilla decided to go to Firefox (browser) and Thunderbird (Mail & News)), a group of individuals (the SeaMonkey Council), with the support of Mozilla Corp, continued the Suite development as SeaMonkey Suite, which is currently upto version 2.8, although only versions up to version 1.1.19 are usable on Win98. SM ver 1.1.19, which is still old, would be much more up to date than NC 4.78 Daniel |

Hey, 98 Guy, is there any particular reason that you are still using NC 4.78?? Because it works just fine. Something I've been meaning to do was try out the last version 4.x of Netscape Communicator (4.8) which was released in 2002. SM ver 1.1.19, which is still old, would be much more up to date than NC 4.78 And what exactly do you get with a more "up-to-date" usenet client? I'll tell you - nothing. I think the last version of Netscape suite that had a separate e-mail/usenet client was version 6 or 7. That's probably the highest or most recent usenet client I'd ever be willing to try or use. |

I don't know where the MsQuery component was stored, on a separate disk or in main package. I also tried to experiment with the installer that I had, pointing path to the msi file, but it fails as as required files missing. |

Gee, I didn't even realise that they released a NC 4.78, but they do list it here :- http://sillydog.org/narchive/ SM ver 1.1.19, which is still old, would be much more up to date than NC 4.78 And what exactly do you get with a more "up-to-date" usenet client? I suppose it all depends on what you want to do, and where you want to go!! I'll tell you - nothing. I think the last version of Netscape suite that had a separate e-mail/usenet client was version 6 or 7. That's probably the highest or most recent usenet client I'd ever be willing to try or use. I found the migration from NC 4.78 to Mozilla Suite to SeaMonkey Suite all pretty uneventful. Just a matter of being up-to-date! Daniel |

It's going to take a few hours. This is going to be a set of 4 rar files (about 330 mb total).

It's from a set of MSDN CD's with a date of January 2001 printed on the CD. If anyone else wants this CD, stay tuned here for the download URL's. I can upload the other 3 disks if someone really wants them. I have a lot of other Office 2000 CD's (developer tools, etc). |

Ok, here it is: http://www.fileden.com/files/2008/7/...isk1.part1.rar http://www.fileden.com/files/2008/7/...isk1.part2.rar http://www.fileden.com/files/2008/7/...isk1.part3.rar http://www.fileden.com/files/2008/7/...isk1.part4.rar Download them all to the same directory, then use winrar or (I think) winzip and decompress the first file (part1). This will create the entire directory structure of disk 1 of the office 2000 premium sr1. Word, Excel, Outlook, Powerpoint, Access and FrontPage. The rar archive is password protected. The password is "a" (no quotes). Enjoy. |
