Office 2000 is starting to roll out. It's in beta now.

We've got one installed, but not on my machine. On my machine, I can't even get the sr1 upgrade to take with Office97. The office 2000 installation requires that your office97 be upgraded to sr2. It comes on 8 cd's, but most are other programs. If MS can ever get me to install sr1 and sr2, I'll put 2000 on my personal machine...... however, this time I'll do it in a different directory than office97 so I can still use both. I'll let you know if I ever get it installed. - Woody Liswood There's a bug that prevents sr1 and 2 from being installed under Windows 98. You may have to completely uninstall Office 97 and reinstall it _after_ Win98 is installed to do the upgrade. (If Office 97 was installed under Win95 and the system was subsequently upgraded to Win98, Win98's WinAlign feature can screw up the SR1 update.) - Lenny Bailes (jroe)
