 - Microsoft Works for the Power Macintosh, versions 4.0 and 4.0b
----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
SYMPTOMS
========
 
The Microsoft Works 4.0 Power Macintosh Administrative Setup offers two
options. The first option allows you to install a copy of Works 4.0 to a
workstation from the server. The second option allows you to run Works 4.0
directly from the server. If you choose the second option, the following
message appears on a Power Macintosh:
 
   Microsoft Works for Power Macintosh Setup does not support
   installing Works to run from a server. Please refer to the
   Read Me for more information.
 
Setup then stops.
 
RESOLUTION
===========
 
Use the following instructions to install to a Network Server.
 
NOTE: To share Works from a server, the workstation machines must be Power
Macintosh systems or have a PowerPC upgrade card. If a network
administrator needs to set up Works for the Power Macintosh to run from a
server, do the following:
 
1. Install Works for the Power Macintosh on a Power Macintosh.
 
2. Move the Works Folder to the server.
 
3. Create a folder on the server (which is easily accessed by
   the workstations) that contains the following files:
 
   a. Microsoft OLE Extension
   b. Microsoft OLE Library
   c. Works Reminder
   d. Works Wizards Fonts
 
   NOTE: Items a, b, and c are in the System/Extensions folder. Item d
   is in the System/Fonts folder.
 
4. From each workstation, copy these items from the server
   into the local System folder.
 
5. Choose OK when prompted to place items into the correct folders.
 
6. Restart the local workstation.
