Will I be able to install Office (2007) through a home network hub to my
laptop that does not have a CD drive?

Thank you for your help.

If your laptop can see a CD/DVD drive that you've shared from another PC on
the network, yes.

Or you can copy the contents of the Office CD to a shared drive on the
network and install from there.
