Read Me File
 
WHAT'S ON THIS CD?
 
Install Bookshelf and Tools
This CD contains an integrated installer for Microsoft Bookshelf
1996-97, Business Tools and Templates for Microsoft Office 4.2.1,
Microsoft Internet Explorer 2.1, Microsoft Internet Connection
Wizard, Internet Assistant for Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Office
Manager (MOM) Updater, and supporting system components. Each of
these components is installed if you select Easy Install. You can
also select Custom Install and select only those items you want.
Each of the main components will be installed at the root level of
your hard disk unless you choose to install them in a specific folder.
 
Install Internet Assistant
From this CD, you can also install the Internet Assistant for
Microsoft Word. Double-click on the Install Internet Assistant alias
to begin installation. Microsoft Word must be closed when you install
the Internet Assistant for Microsoft Word.
 
Microsoft Bookshelf 1996-97
You can run Bookshelf directly from the CD. However, to play the movies
and hear the sounds, QuickTime 2.0 or later must be installed in your
System Folder. If Bookshelf can't find these files, it will prompt you
to run the Installer. Although installing the application to your hard
drive requires about 7 MB of free space, it makes the program launch and
run noticeably faster. The text, sounds, and images remain on the
Bookshelf 1996-97 CD, so you will still need to insert the CD to run
Bookshelf.
 
To run Bookshelf from the CD, insert the CD into your computer's CD-ROM
drive, double-click on the CD icon, and double-click the Microsoft
Bookshelf alias.
 
Business Tools and Templates
To run the Business Guide or Templates from the CD, insert the CD
into your computer's CD-ROM drive, double-click on the CD icon, open
the Business Tools and Templates folder, and double-click the file you
wish to open.
 
Microsoft Internet Explorer 2.1
To run Microsoft Internet Explorer from the CD, insert the CD into your
computer's CD-ROM drive, double-click the CD icon, open the Internet
Explorer 2.1 folder, and double-click the Internet Explorer 2.1
application icon.
 
Internet Connection Wizard
The Internet Connection Wizard is provided to help you get connected
to the Internet with a PPP account from an Internet Service Provider. To
run the Internet Connection Wizard from the CD, insert the CD into your
computer's CD-ROM drive, double-click the CD icon, open the Internet
Connection Wizard folder, and double-click the Internet Connection
Wizard application icon.
 
Internet Config 1.3
To run Internet Config from the CD, insert the CD into your computer's
CD-ROM drive, double-click the CD icon, open the Internet Config 1.3
folder, and double-click the Internet Config application icon. If
required, you will be prompted to install the Internet Config extension.
 
MOM Updater
The MOM Updater provides fixes for certain problems experienced with the
Microsoft Office Manager on some systems. It is highly recommended that
you install the MOM Updater. This will be installed automatically if
you choose Easy Install when you run Install Bookshelf and Tools. If
you do not run the installer, it is recommended that you run the MOM
Updater by opening the MOM Updater folder and double-clicking on
Office Manager Updater.
 
INSTALLATION
To install these components to your hard disk:
Insert the Bookshelf 1996-97 CD into your CD-ROM drive.
 
Double-click the Bookshelf 1996-97 CD icon that appears on your desktop.

Click the Install button.
 
NOTE: Some virus protection software may mistake the installer's
necessary actions for behaviors associated with a virus, possibly
disrupting the installation process. It is recommended that you
disable any virus protection software before launching the installer,
then re-enable it after the installation.
