Word for Windows 95 "Step by Step": Practice Folder Missing

• "Microsoft Word for Windows 95 Step by Step" ISBN 1-55615-828-9 (first printing only)

SUMMARY

The practice disk that is provided with the first printing of "Microsoft Word for Windows 95 Step by Step" does not properly set the Winword SBS Practice folder location in Favorites as it should.

MORE INFORMATION

Most of these books contain the following correction notice label located on the practice disk envelope:

IMPORTANT! You will not be able to find the practice files on your computer by following the instructions as they now appear in this book. Please note the following changes:

Replace page 24, Step 2 with: If the Winword SBS Practice folder is not currently displayed in the Save In box, click in the Save In box and then from the list that appears, click the C: hard disk. Next double-click the Winword SBS Practice folder icon.

Replace page 30, Step 3 with: If a folder name other than Winword SBS Practice appears in the Look In box, click in the Look In box and then from the list that appears, click the C: hard disk.

This information applies to this copy of "Microsoft Word for Windows 95 Step by Step."

The above correction notice label is all that is necessary to use this book.
