(a) If you download Viewer.exe and choose to run it, the file will unpack itself and start the Word Viewer 97 Setup program. You can also save the file to a local folder and run Viewer.exe later. However, this folder cannot be the location into which you plan to install Word Viewer. (b) If you receive Word Viewer on disks, insert the disk labeled as disk 1 into your floppy drive.
