SUMMARYThis article explains how to install the additional Office Assistants that are included in the Microsoft Office 98 Macintosh Edition Value Pack.
MORE INFORMATIONWhen you install Microsoft Office 98 Macintosh Edition on your computer, only one assistant, Max, is installed by default.
Installing Additional AssistantsTo install additional assistants, follow these steps:
Using Aliases to Additional AssistantsAll together, the additional assistants use almost 20 megabytes (MB) of hard disk space. If there is not enough free hard disk space on your computer, you can use aliases that allow you to use assistants without actually copying them onto the hard disk. To do this, follow these steps:
IMPORTANT: The location in which the assistant files are actually stored must be available in order for you to use them. Therefore, if the assistants are stored on your Microsoft Office 98 compact disc, the compact disc must be in the CD-ROM drive when you use the assistants; otherwise, the assistants do not work. Similarly, if the assistants are stored on a network server, you must be connected to the server to use them.
Performing an Administrative Installation of Additional AssistantsIf you perform an administrative installation of Microsoft Office 98, you can automatically install additional assistants for network users to install by dragging the assistant files from the Microsoft Office 98 compact disc into the Assistants folder on the network server. You can include additional assistants in an administrative installation of Microsoft Office 98 Macintosh Edition by following these steps:
NOTE: If a user installs Microsoft Office 98 by running the Microsoft Office Installer program, the additional assistants are not installed on the computer. If this occurs, you must provide the user with manual instructions for installing the additional assistants.
