The UK60A.EXE file you downloaded and ran contains the Microsoft
Word version 6.0a for Windows upgrade patch. This upgrade can be
used ONLY with the English/UK version of Word 6.0 for Windows on
a standalone installation.
CAUTIONS
========
Do not attempt to use the patch for either a workstation or server
network installation. Please call the Microsoft subsidiary nearest
you to request a full set of upgrade diskettes if you wish to perform
an upgrade on a network installation.
Do not attempt to use this patch to upgrade ANY other version of Word
6.0 for Windows other than the English/UK version. Doing so on
any other version of Word 6.0, including the U.S. and Australian versions,
will create a corrupt installation. Use this patch to upgrade your
English/UK version only.
INSTRUCTIONS
============
To upgrade your English/UK version of Word for Windows using the patch, follow
these steps:
1. Create an empty directory on your hard drive (for example C:\6PATCH).
2. Copy the files SETUP.BAT and _MSETUP.EX_, expanded from UK60A.EXE,
to the empty directory.
3. Run SETUP.BAT by either double-clicking on it in File Manager,
or by typing "SETUP.BAT" at the DOS prompt. This will expand
the Word 6.0a patch files to your temporary directory. If you
choose to run SETUP from the DOS prompt, ensure that your current
directory is the one created in step 1 above, or that you include
the path name to the directory, for example, C:\6PATCH\SETUP.BAT.
Note: Running SETUP.BAT does not perform the upgrade. It simply
prepares for the upgrade by creating two sub-directories, \HELP
and \REG, then expands the files required to perform the upgrade.
4. Open UPGRADE.DOC in Word 6.0 and read the instructions before
performing the actual upgrade procedure. Also, consider printing
a copy of UPGRADE.DOC to refer to during the upgrade procedure.
UPGRADE.DOC contains troubleshooting information you may need to
use if you encounter any difficulties performing the upgrade.
5. Perform the upgrade procedure as specified in UPGRADE.DOC.
6. After you successfully upgrade to Word 6.0a you can delete the
temporary patch directory, created in step 1, and its contents.
