BUG #: 18539 (SQLBUG_65)

SYMPTOMS

When you run Setup.exe for the SQL Server Service Pack 5 (SP5) on a client computer, the updated Sqlgui32.dll file is not installed.

When SP5 is installed on a SQL Server, the file installs correctly.


WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, copy the updated Sqlgui32.dll file (468,480 bytes, dated 8/25/1998) from the SP5 installation directory to the Mssql\Binn directory on the client computer.
