Powerpoint Install issue

Fellow IT professionals, TechRepublic members, and forum moderators,

I work for a commercial contracting and design firm known as Kustom inc. I do general contracting, CAD work, research, and presentations. I use powerpoint to incorporate and present the CAD drawings that I export in wmf format.

Here’s the problem. The corporate office is in FL and I live in IN, and the office has the disk for Microsoft Office 11 that I need to reinstall to fix my problem. Everything except Powerpoint and Publisher works fine, but when I start either of those, they say “not installed for this user, please reinstall”. Is there a file I can edit to fix this so that I don’t have to lose work time waiting for the disk in the mail?
