- KEYWORDS:
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
- The information in this article applies to:
-
- - Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
- - Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- SYMPTOMS
- ========
-
- If you install Microsoft Bookshelf93 in Windows NT, only the User who
- installed the application will be able to run the program, even if
- common program groups are used.
-
- If you attempt to start Bookshelf93 from another user account, the
- following error message appears:
-
- Cannot find Viewer file. Make sure the correct disk and
- directory are specified.
-
- If you attempt to start Bookshelf93 logged in as another User from the
- Microsoft Word for Windows tool bar icon, the following error message
- appears:
-
- Word could not find a necessary Bookshelf file. Make sure the
- Word & Bookshelf disc is in the CD-ROM drive. If necessary,
- reinstall Word & Bookshelf.
-
- CAUSE
- =====
-
- When Bookshelf93 is installed, it creates a key called Files under the
- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Viewer key in the Registry. This
- key contains references to the CD-ROM drive and libraries used by
- Bookshelf93. This key is only created for the current user.
-
- RESOLUTION
- ==========
-
- To run Bookshelf93 from Program Manager, you need to edit the
- properties for each Bookshelf93 icon to include the full path to
- Bookshelf93 program files. To do so, use the following procedure:
-
- 1. Highlight the Bookshelf93 icon in Program Manager.
-
- 2. Choose Properties from the File menu.
-
- 3. Change the command line to reflect the path to the Bookshelf
- program files. For example, if it reads
-
- c:\winnt\system\mviewer2.exe books93.mvb
-
- change it to:
-
- c:\winnt\system\mviewer2.exe e:\books\books93.mvb
-
- 4. Choose OK to save the changes to the icon.
-
- 5. Repeat steps 1-4 for each icon that Bookshelf93 created.
-
- To setup Bookshelf93 to run from Program Manager and from the Word
- for Windows tool bar, use the following procedure:
-
- 1. Start Resgistry Editor (REGEDT32.EXE).
-
- WARNING: Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious,
- system-wide problems that may require you to reinstall Windows
- NT to correct them. Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems
- resulting from the use of Registry Editor can be solved. Use
- this tool at your own risk.
-
- 2. Go to the following key:
-
- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Viewer\Files
-
- 3. With the Files key highlighted, choose Save Key from the Registry
- menu.
-
- 4. Type a file name (such as FILES.SAV).
-
- 5. Choose OK.
-
- 6. Go to the following key:
-
- HKEY_USERS\DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Viewer
-
- 7. Choose Add Key from the Edit menu.
-
- 8. For the Key Name, type Files.
-
- 9. Leave the Class blank and choose OK.
-
- 10. Highlight the new Files key.
-
- 11. Choose Restore from the Registry menu.
-
- 12. Select the name you used in step 4.
-
- 13. Exit Registry Editor.
-
- 14. Start User Manager from the Administrative Tools group in Program
- Manager.
-
- 15. Create a new user.
-
- The new user you just created and all further users you create will be
- able to access Bookshelf93. User accounts that already were set up
- before you performed this procedure will need to be recreated to
- access Bookshelf93.
