subject: Install Word on portab

Hello Cees,
GB> I have Microsoft Office 4.3 on a CD. It is easy to install on
GB> the desktop computer, but I want to install it on my portable.
GB> Does anybody know how I can install Microsoft Word 6.0 onto a
GB> portable from a CD on a desktop?
CS> If you don't have any other network connection to the desktop you can use
CS> interlink ( from dos 6.xx ). With a parallel cable the speed is 
reasonable.
I don't have any network connection. I still use WinLink between 
the two computers. I have used interlink before sucessfully, but 
I wasn't sure that I could use it to install something on the 
laptop since it will probably update the win.ini  (and other 
*.ini files) on the desktop when I install Word 6.0 on the 
laptop. I will back up the key files on both computers, then 
give it a try.
Thanks for the tip.
Gerald
