Microsoft Office 2000 SR-1 Readme File February 2000 (c) 2000 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

This Readme file tells you where to find late breaking information for each of the products in the Office box. To install Office 2000 SR-1 on Windows 2000 or on Windows NT 4.0, you must run Setup with elevated privileges. Elevated privileges give an installation program administrator rights to install software into system areas. To run the installation with elevated privileges, you can use one of the following methods: Log on to the users computer as an administrator before running the installation program. Advertise the Windows Installer package. When the user first runs the application, the Windows Installer completes the installation under administrator privileges. Use Windows system policies to allow all Windows Installer packages to install with elevated privileges. Use Systems Management Server and run the Package Command Manager as a service on the user's computer so that it runs with administrator privileges. Use Windows 2000 App Deployment to assign or publish Office to the user. You can also install Office 2000 as a Power User on Windows 2000 without elevated privileges. For more information about installing Office-related software with elevated privileges, see Installing Office with Elevated Privileges on Windows NT 4.0 in the Office 2000 Resource Kit. There may be additional updates recommended for your computer that you should apply after installing this software. Please consult the file READMORE.TXT located in the \Support folder on CD1.
