SYMPTOMS
If you use the Measurement Equivalents InterActivity "How many millimeters
in a mile?" in Microsoft Encarta 98 Encyclopedia for Windows, when you type
a number in the Miles box, the equivalent measurement in the Feet box is
incorrect.
For example, when you type "1" in the Miles box, "5,820" is displayed in
the Feet box. There are actually 5,280 feet in a mile.
NOTE: When you type a number in the Feet box, the equivalent measurement
in the Miles box is correct.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Encarta 98
Encyclopedia for Windows. Microsoft is researching this problem and will
post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes
available.
