The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Office for Windows, versions 4.3c-CD

SYMPTOMS

After you install Microsoft Office 4.3c-CD with Bookshelf and choose not to install Microsoft Word and Microsoft Bookshelf integration, you may not be able to enable this integration without first removing and then reinstalling the Bookshelf component of Office in Maintenance mode of Setup.

RESOLUTION

To add Word and Bookshelf integration

  1. Run Office setup. You can choose "Office Setup and Uninstall" from the Office button of the Microsoft Office Manager. Or you can open the Office Setup icon in the Microsoft Office group. Or you can choose Run from the File menu in Program Manager and type "D:\SETUP.EXE" (without the quotation marks). This last alternative assumes that your CD-ROM drive is "D" for the command line. Choose OK. This should start the Maintenance Mode Setup for Microsoft Office.

  2. Choose Add/Remove.

  3. Disable the Bookshelf component and choose Continue. Be careful not to disable any other options because they will also be removed. After you are warned that two components will be removed and are you sure, choose YES. Continue until setup has completed successfully.

  4. After setup has completed, repeat steps 1 and 2.

  5. Enable the Bookshelf component and choose Continue.

  6. When you receive the "Would you like to install the Word and Bookshelf integration?" prompt, choose Yes.

The Word and Bookshelf integration should now be installed on your system.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Office version 4.3c-CD for Windows. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION

Word and Bookshelf integration includes the <Tip> of the Day*, Define, and Copy To Word menu commands.

*In addition to the Tip Of The Day, you now get the Quote Of The Day, Word Of The Day, or This Day In History when you start Microsoft Word. (This information comes from Bookshelf and is displayed in Word.) This feature is also available from the View menu.

On the Microsoft Word short-cut menu (to bring up this menu, click the right mouse button), there is now a Define option that will display the definition of the word. (This information comes from Bookshelf and is displayed in Word.) This is also available from the View menu.

The Copy To Word command will copy the text from a Bookshelf entry, paste it into a Word document and automatically add a footnote to it. This command is located on the Edit menu in Microsoft Bookshelf.
