Documentation for the Microsoft Office 2000 Resource Kit is organized into six parts. The contents of each part are described in the following sections.
Part 1 provides an overview of the operating systems on which you can install Office 2000, including Microsoft Windows® 95/98, Microsoft Windows NT® Workstation 4.0, Windows NT Server 4.0, and the Windows 2000 family of products. The topics discuss hardware recommendations for running Office 2000 on these operating systems, as well as notes on using Office in a mixed-platform environment.
Server issues, which include information about service packs, security, and data access technologies, are covered separately. Also included are notes on the Microsoft BackOffice® server suites and on other supported network operating systems.
Part 2 describes the tools and strategies that you can use to deploy Office 2000 throughout your organization. Basic installation methods are covered first, along with information about the new Windows installer technology.
Other topics present the Office Custom Installation Wizard, which allows you to control how users in your organization install Office on their computers, as well as the Profile Wizard, which lets you establish specific settings for toolbars, templates, and custom dictionaries. Special-case installations are also discussed, including deploying Office 2000 in a multinational setting and managing different levels of customization within one organization. Information about deploying Office 2000 with Microsoft Systems Management Server is also provided.
Part 3 discusses how you can reduce the cost of supporting Office 2000 by locking down application configurations and adding your own topics and messages to the online Help system. The topics about system policies show how you can use the System Policy Editor to set configuration options such as menu commands, toolbar buttons, and dialog box options.
Other topics describe how you can add your organization’s information to the online Help system, Answer Wizard, and built-in messages. A final section covers the security features supported in Office 2000 applications.
Part 4 describes strategies that you can use to upgrade your current files to Office 2000. Information is included about the Microsoft Office Converter Pack, which enables Office 2000 applications to share files with previous versions of Office and other products. Introductory topics discuss planning your move to Office 2000, as well as special notes on year 2000 issues. An upgrading reference section lists special considerations for the core Office applications.
Part 5 presents the new Web capabilities of Office 2000, including features that allow you to publish, manage, and search Office 2000 documents on an intranet server. Also covered are the new Web Discussions feature, which allows users to collaborate on Office documents stored on a Web server, as well as other new features provided by Microsoft Office Server Extensions.
Part 6 covers the built-in support provided in Office 2000 for international users. A key discussion covers the Microsoft Office 2000 MultiLanguage Pack, which allows users to change the language of the user interface and the online Help system.
Other topics cover planning for a multinational deployment, using international dictionaries and proofing tools, and taking advantage of Unicode support to open documents across different language versions of the product.
