MORE INFORMATION
The following list of steps must be performed to properly create a "Run
From Network" installation of the updated Web Authoring Tools:
- Download the latest version of the Web Authoring Tools file, Wd97au.exe,
to a client machine that has been set up to run Word from the server.

- When given the choice to either save to disk or open the Wd97au.exe,
click Save To Disk.
- Ensure there are no users running Word 97 from the server.
- On the client machine, from the Windows 95 Start menu, click Run.
- Type in the following Setup script, substituting the path in the
following example for the path location of the Wd97au.exe you
downloaded in steps 1 and 2.
c:\Windows\Desktop\Wd97au.exe /c:serverau.inf
This executes a special version of the Setup script which will install
the updated Web authoring components to the server.
- You must restart Windows at the client machine you ran the setup script
from before the updated settings will take effect. The Server does not
need to be restarted.
- After restarting the client machine, users at other workstations will
see the changes the next time they start or install Word 97.
This method does not install the Web Publishing Wizard. The Web Publishing
Wizard must be set up on each computer. To set up the Web Publishing
Wizard, use the following steps:
- Copy or download the Wd97au.exe to each client machine setup to run Word
from the server.
- If Word is currently running, exit Word.
- Type in the following Setup script, substituting the path in the
following example for the path location of the Wd97au.exe you
downloaded or copied in step 1.
c:\Windows\Desktop\wd97au.exe /c:wpfull.inf
This executes a special version of the setup script which will install
the Updated Web Publishing Wizard components to the client machine.
