Another question about viewing old output files

[Sara House]

Hello everyone -

I know someone has asked this question before (how does one view Output files created before version 16) and received an answer (Legacy Viewer).  The problem is that I don't think my software came with the viewer.  I've looked all through my install CD with no luck.  I am using the Grad Student pack - would that make a difference?  I tried looking on the SPSS website, but all I could find was "SPSS base comes with the viewer and you don't need another license".  There was no where to download the file.  If it's just a viewer and it doesn't allow you to do anything but view .spo files, why can't they just offer it for download on the website?  Microsoft lets anyone download a powerpoint viewer for free.  This seems like the same thing to me.
