When I put the disk in it opens up to where I can install the different programs on the disk, but I can't get at the clipart. I also had installed Office 97 awhile back,.
Microsoft Office 97 is a major milestone release of Microsoft Office, which includes hundreds of new features and improvements over its predecessor, Microsoft Office 95. Office 97 introduced 'Command Bars,' a paradigm in which menus and toolbars were made more similar in capability and visual design. It also featured natural language systems and sophisticated grammar checking. It was published on CD-ROM as well as on a set of 44 3½-inch floppy disks. Released on November 19, 1996,[2] the suite runs on Windows NT 3.51 SP5, Windows 95, Windows NT 4.0, Windows 98, Windows 2000, and Windows Me. It is the last version to support Windows NT 3.51 as its successor, Office 2000, is not compatible with it. Two service releases (SR-1 and SR-2) were released for Office 97. SR-2 solved the year 2000 problem in Office 97.[3]
Microsoft Office 97 is the first version of Office to feature the Office Assistant, a feature designed to assist users by the way of an interactive animated character, which interfaced with the Office help content. The default assistant was 'Clippit', nicknamed 'Clippy', a paperclip. The Office Assistant feature was also included in its successor, Office 2000, as well as in Office XP (hidden by default) and 2003 (not installed by default), before being removed entirely in Office 2007.
Office 97 is also the first Microsoft product to include product activation. The Brazilian versions of Office 97 Small Business Edition and Publisher 98 required it.[4]
Assisted support options and security updates for Office 97 ended on January 16, 2004. Mainstream hotfix support for Office 97 ended on August 31, 2001, while extended hotfix support ended on February 28, 2002.[5]
Two Office 97 applications featured easter eggs: Microsoft Word 97 contained a hidden pinball game and Microsoft Excel contained a hidden flight simulator.[6][7]
Editions[edit]
The vivid cover art emphasized the fifth 'puzzle piece', Microsoft Access

Have you checked the file association the clipart with Publisher 98 installed? Sounds like, when Publisher is installed, Windows is telling Publisher to open the clip art, and its failing for whatever reason.Should be able to fix it like this:Without Publisher installed, open the clipart and verify which program is opening it (probably Paint, but could be something else).
Then save a clip art file to the desktop, right-click and choose Open With. Then select in the list the program that you used to open the clip art when Publisher was NOT installed. Check the 'Always use this program.'
Box and click OK. This will change the default association for the filetype from using Publisher to using the other program.Hope this helps.
