OFF95: Small Business Pack Help Links May Not Work

The information in this article applies to:

• Microsoft Office for Windows 95, version 7.0

SYMPTOMS

The Office Small Business Pack contains links within the Help files that allow you to open the Small Business Pack templates and databases. Some of these links may not work as expected when they are accessed from Small Business Pack Help.

Note that all Microsoft Access database links work correctly.

STATUS

Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION

When you attempt to access Microsoft Excel, Word, or PowerPoint templates or documents through the Help file links, not all of the links work. For example, in the Statement of Net Worth help topic, click the button next to the "To complete a statement of net worth now, click" statement in Small Business Pack Help file.

Help takes you to the help screen instructions, but the template is not opened. This portion of Help assumes that you are in the "Statement of Net Worth" template.

NOTE: When you access this template by clicking the Answer Wizard, if the template is not open it will be opened.
