You could reinstall office.

Or you could create your own shortcuts.

Windows start button|Search
Look for Winword.exe
When you find it,
right click on it|SendTo|Desktop (Create Shortcut)

Do the same for excel.exe

For me (office 2003), I found both of them under:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11

Hello, I have searched everywhere for help on this but can't find any answers.

Earlier I accidentally deleted the shortcuts for Excel and Word from my
computer and these 2 have now disappeared from both of start menu - all
programs. These 2 are still on the computer itself but I don't know how to
get them back on the main lists...

I tried dragging them over but they do not get added. Can someone please
help me to put them back on as shortcuts???

Thanks so much!
