OK, I never could figure out how I lost my MS Office from
my ALL PROGRAMS display so I removed all the MS Office
applications and then re-installed them. MS Office now
appears in my ALL PROGRAMS display just as before.
Now, how do I get MS Office to display in my wife's ALL
PROGRAMS display. She and I are both administrators on
this machine. Do I have to do the install again when
she's logged on? There's got to be an easier way.
TIA

Right click the Start button and Explore All Users. Create shortcuts for the
Office executables (like winword.exe) in the location of your preference.
