Yes, I *was* trying to move it. I did move it. My bitch is that now that I have moved it, Word and Excel don't work, even after I moved it back. The remove comment was an example.
I will keep the Systemworks suggestion in mind. It might be less trouble to get the Office disk out than to go buy a whole other program, but convenience is suddenly no longer the issue. Has anyone here ever used Open Office on windows? 2000 Pro if it matters. Your suggestion did give me an idea, but a quick prowl through hkey_local_machine and hkey_current_user brought no bright ideas and no joy.
