Documentation Errors in the Programs.txt Files
This article was previously published under Q236798
The Programs.txt files included with Windows 98 and Windows 98 Second Edition contain the fefollowing incorrect information about the Microsoft Office 97 Service Release 1 (SR-1) Patch:
Microsoft Office 97 Service Releases (patches)
----------------------------------------------
If Windows 95 and Office 97 are installed on your computer and you
then upgrade to Windows 98, the Office 97 Service Release 1 patch
cannot be installed on your system. However, if you install the
Office 97 Service Release 1 patch before you upgrade to Windows
98, the patch should work correctly.
An Office 97 Service Release 2 patch is planned for release in
Summer 1998. The Service Release 2 patch can be used on both
Windows 95 and Windows 98 systems.
The latest Office 97 Service Release patches can be found at
http://www.microsoft.com/msoffice/office97/servicerelease/default.asp
This information only applies to earlier version of the Office 97 SR-1 Patch. An updated SR-1 patch, now available from the Microsoft web site, prevents these problems from occurring.
The latest Office 97 Service Release patches can be installed from the following Microsoft Web site:
Both the SR-2 patch and the updated SR-1 patch can be installed on Windows 98 and Windows 98 Second Edition.
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Windows 98 Standard Edition
- Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
