The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Office for Windows 95, version 7.0, 7.0a

SYMPTOMS

When you use the Network Installation Wizard and make multiple changes to options associated with more than one program, the final change made is the only one saved in the new .stf file.

WORKAROUND

  1. In the Network Installation Wizard dialog box, click Custom.

  2. Select a program (for example, Microsoft Excel), and then click Change Options.

  3. Select one of the options listed and click Change Folder.

  4. Type the appropriate path and directory, and then click OK.

    The changes will be accepted.

  5. Save the new .stf file.

  6. Open the new .stf file, make an additional change if necessary and save this change.

  7. Repeat these steps and save as many times as necessary.

NOTE: If you choose to use the default name, Newsetup.stf, and click Cancel in the second or any subsequent change, the newly created .stf file is deleted.

STATUS
