I have just purchased a new laptop but although it has XP professional installed there are no Office programmes, Word, Excel and so forth. I have these pre installed on my Desktop PC, but no disk. Is it possible to copy the files to CD and load on new machine?

No.
The Office install programs makes numerous registry entries - simply copying the files from one machine to another via CD, will not make the necessary registry entries, therefore it won't work.
(Thats putting aside the fact that it'd be illegal anyway....)

Nope.
You need the installation CD.

No chance, you can download Open office.org Developed by Sun Micro systems. And it's an open source software. There is charge for you.

technically you cannot have another copy of the programme
its both illegitimate and illegal
but you can move the folders to your lap top , there you do not violate any thing
good luck
