I've done this about 6 times with no success. I've uninstalled all of
Office97 and then re-installed, Unistalled again, tried to remove
references from regsitry-which really got me in trouble. When I next
tried an install I got an error message about not being able to
properly update the registry. I reloaded a registry back up to get me
back to where I was 2 days ago. I've tried a reinstall of
Office97...still no graph8!!!!

I am really upset with MS at this point. There is no reason that
registering this activex file should be so difficult. There is nothing
on their website (as far as I've been able to search) to help either.
I am betting that the problem lies in all the garbage references left
in the registry by Office products. I could not believe all the
outdated crap from Office I found in my registry.

Anyway, I don't know what to do next, so I will keep trying to
reinstall until the #%%&# thing works.
