  3. Locate the [Import] section, and change all the references that specify <drive>\msoffice\clipart\pcsfiles to <CD-ROM drive>:\pcsfiles, where <drive>\msoffice is the drive and directory to which you installed Microsoft Office, and <CD-ROM drive> is your CD-ROM drive. Make sure that the Office Disk 1 CD is still in the drive.


  4. Using File Manager, delete all of the files located in the msoffice\clipart\pcsfiles directory on your local hard drive.


  5. Run an application that supports OLE, for example, Microsoft Write. From the Edit menu, choose Insert Object, and select Microsoft ClipArt Gallery, and choose OK.
