-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

When you click Voice Control on the Options menu in Encarta Encyclopedia to
enable the Voice Control feature, the "How to Install Voice Control" Help topic
may open in a new Help window, even if the Voice Control feature is already
installed.

CAUSE
=====

This behavior can occur if the Comctl32.dll file is outdated.

RESOLUTION
==========

NOTE: DO NOT use either of the following methods if Microsoft Internet Explorer
5.0 is installed on your computer. If you do, you may not be able to restart
your computer. Internet Explorer installs its own version of the Comct132.dll
file during Setup. At this time, there is no resolution to this issue if
Internet Explorer 5.0 is installed on your computer. To check the version of
Internet Explorer that is installed on your computer, start Internet Explorer,
and then click About Internet Explorer on the Help menu.

To resolve this issue, copy the Comctl32.dll file from the Installation and
Resources CD-ROM to your hard disk. To do this, use the appropriate method for
your version of Microsoft Windows.
