Back up program on external HD during system restore?

[shannao]

Sorry if the question has already been asked, I couldn't find anything. I have a mac mini and I am going to do system restore but I was wondering if it was possible to store Microsoft Office on my external hard drive because I don't have the discs anymore. If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it.

If you're going to system restore to an earlier point, Microsoft Office will not be removed. However, if you reinstall the OS, it might be removed.
