PUB2: Installing Files from Workstation Directory

Q112831

-------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Publisher for Windows, versions 2.0, 2.0a
-------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY
=======

Pages 385-386 of the "Microsoft Publisher User's Guide" include incorrect
instructions for installing Microsoft Publisher 2.0 as a personal
application.

Step 7 on page 386 instructs you to copy files from the installation disks
to a single directory called X:\MSPUB. The proper procedure is to copy each
installation disk into its own directory named for the corresponding disk.

MORE INFORMATION
================

Rather than copy all the floppy disks to

   x:\mspub

you should copy the Setup disks to their own directories. For example:

   x:\mspub\disk1
   x:\mspub\disk2
   x:\mspub\disk3
   x:\mspub\disk4
   x:\mspub\disk5
   x:\mspub\disk6 (disk 6 only in the case of 5.25 media)

To run Setup, choose Run from the File menu in Program Manager, and
type the following:

   x:\mspub\disk1\setup
