The "installation" involves copying a couple of .hlp files and their 
indices to well-known locations.  The files aren't that big, and can be 
placed anywhere (say, inside your home directory) if you can't drop 
them in their well-known locations.  The only negative effect would be 
that you'd have to launch the help files from the shell, instead of 
from inside Office.  Seriously, though, coding in VBA without access to 
the reference manuals is maddening, since Microsoft seems to have no 
consistent naming convention for functions or objects.

Email me privately with which version of Office you're using, and I'll 
tell you from where you may obtain the proper help files.
