Office 4.x-CD: Office Assistant Files Not in OFFICE Directory

Q118943

The information in this article applies to:

SUMMARY

In the instructions for installing Microsoft Office Assistant that are included with Microsoft Office, step 4 states the following:

In the Command Line box, type the letter of the drive that contains the Office CD, a colon, a backslash, the text office.ast\disk1\setup and then choose the OK button. For example, type d:\office\disk1\setup.
This information is incorrect.

On the Microsoft Office 4.2-CD, the Office Assistant files are located in the OFASSIST directory. Therefore, the command line should read as follows 

    <drive>:\ofassist\disk1\setup
(where <drive> is the drive, D for example, where the Office CD is located).

On the Microsoft Office 4.3-CD, the Office Assistant files are located in the bonus directory. Therefore, the command line should read as follows 

    <drive>:\bonus\oa\disk1\setup
(where <drive> is the drive, D for example, where the Office CD is located).


STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the documentation for Microsoft Office version 4.2-CD and 4.3-CD.
