Run-Time Windows Files Not Deleted by Excel 3.00 Setup

SUMMARY

If Excel 3.00 has been installed in the same directory as an earlier version of Excel with run-time Windows (a directory other than the Windows 3.00 directory), some run-time Windows files will still be present and can cause problems. The following files will need to be deleted from the EXCEL directory:

CLIPBRD.EXE CONTROL.EXE SPOOLER.EXE MEMSET.EXE *.FON, EXCEPT for PREV.FON *.DRV *.TXT, EXCEPT for README.TXT WIN*.*

Note: An asterisk wildcard here represents all files with the corresponding extension or in the case of WIN*.*, all files with the first three characters WIN. For more information on wildcard characters, consult your DOS manual.

If Excel 3.00 and Windows 3.00 have been installed and a third directory containing Excel 2.1x with run-time Windows still exists, all files except your data files may be deleted by deleting all those listed above in addition to those listed below. Finally, if you want to remove Excel 2.1x from the Windows 3.00 directory, delete the following:

   EXCEL.EXE
   EXCELDE.EXE
   TRANS.EXE
   EXCELHLP.HLP
   XLSETUP.EXE
   TRANS123.XLM
   TRANSMP.XLM
   WEST.XLS
   EAST.XLS
   ANNUAL.XLS
   The EXCELCBT subdirectory
   The LIBRARY subdirectory
