XLVIEW and WORDVIEW don't work

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

I replaced my old Microsoft Word View 97 and Excel View 97 programs with the
new Word View 2003 and Excel View 2003, but they don't work.

Trying to start them only yield this error message:

"The application has failed to start because MSO97v.DLL was noy found.
Re-installing the application may fix the problem",

but numerous re-installations have changed nothing.
I was adviced by a friend to use OpenOffice to view office documents
instead, and that works fine, but I feel that the graphical rendition of
some documents with complex graphics, is less clear than it used to be, with
Word View 97 and Excel View 97, so I wondered if there is some way to get
Word View 2003 and Excel View 2003 to work? The support knowledge base has
nothing at all on MSO97v.DLL and the error message gives no hints as to
where the .DLL is supposed to be, so even if I get hold of a copy of the
DLL it won't help much, I guess.
Does anyone here know how to fix it?
