what to do with .rpm files

If I download a program in .rpm format, how do I install it? When I
tried to install it with YaST, I got an error that /usr/lib/rpm/rpmrc
does not exist; it in fact does not exist (the /usr/lib/rpm directory
doesn't exist). I do have a copy of the rpm binary in
/home/eckles/.kde/share/bin/, but when I try to run it I get the same
error.

Thanks,
