When you first installed I believe you had to choose custom rater than automatic, and you get to choose the whole enchilada then. I have MS works suite 2001, but had same problem, so I went back and put in the installation disk and went custom this time and got everything in there now and don't need the cd anymore!
Even opening some email attachments it was always wanting the setup cd to install 1 more thing I missed originally, and that got to be a pain so I dug in ther and found out how to get it all in there from the get go. Automatic install just puts what they think are the most likely options you will need and tries to save you HD space, but nowadays with HD's as big as they are who cares about saving HD space. I don't want to keep searching for CD either!

I put the cd back and tried a reinstall etc.. I was given the option of which programs i wished to be installed (custom) I did notgive the option of install everything( ie. clipart graphics etc..) Any other ideas? Do I have to manually find all the graphics and install them and if so when would I find them and where would I install them.

Thanks

When you choose a custom installation, you are given a little list with the programs (Excel, Word, Outlook, etc.) and a few extras. Can't remember exactly where the clipart is, but it is under one of those extras. So just look for it, or if you have enough space on your hard drive, install it all.

I did install it all and it still prompts for the cd when I wish to use clipart graphics. I have gone through the list you have described as well in the custom setup and have been unable to find anything in there with regards to clipart.
