Moderate: Requires basic macro, coding, and interoperability skills.
If you install Microsoft Office 97 Professional Edition on a Windows NT
Workstation, and then log on to the same computer as a different user and
install Office 97 again, the installation maintenance screen appears. When
you click Reinstall, the Setup program copies files; however after you
receive the message that Setup is updating your system, you receive the
following error:
When you click OK, you receive the following error message:Accwiz.dll was unable to register itself in the system registry.
Microsoft Office 97 Setup was not completed successfully.
This problem occurs when both of the following conditions are true:
If you want more than one user to run Office 97 Professional on a Windows
NT 4.0 Workstation computer, a member of the Administrators group should
install it first. This allows different users to run Office programs
without having to run Setup.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Office 97 Professional Edition. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
