Word tool: Installing on a Windows PC

Installing Harvard-SHU 2014 on your own WINDOWS PC

If you have Microsoft Word 2007, 2010 or 2013, you can install the Harvard-SHU 2014 style using the links below.  Depending on your system you may need to try both of the links for the version of Office that you have.

PLEASE NOTE: Making changes to your computer or laptop is at your own risk.

Word 2007

Word 2010

The Harvard-SHU installation for Word 2010 will not work on your own computer or laptop if you are using the click-to-run version of Microsoft Office 2010.  Programs delivered via click-to-run execute in a virtual application environment and many add-ins will not function with this version.

It is possible to replace the click-to-run version of Word if you have your product key. See the Microsoft instructions.  Making changes to your computer or laptop is at your own risk.  If you are not sure if you have the click-to-run version of Office 2010, look at your Office14 folder (C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14 or C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office 14). If neither of these contains a winword.exe file you probably have the click to run version.

Word 2013

Word 2013 as part of Office 365

If you installed Word 2013 as part of Office 365, you will find that the above links do not work.  Please see below for how to install the Harvard-SHU style
