The WordRet.MSI is only available as part of theMS Word standalone package, which is also includedin MS Works Suite. Check in Add/Remove Programs in the Windows Control Panel to see if you have a separate listing of Microsoft Word in addition to Microsoft Office.If you have both, but don't have both CD sets you may be able to remove the Word listing and use the feature fromMicrosoft Office.The .MSI files are the main product file for the retail products and aren't downloadable separately from Microsoft.
