SUMMARY
Microsoft Clip Gallery is a common component that is used by many Microsoft products. During the installation of a product that ships with Microsoft Clip Gallery, Clip Gallery is automatically upgraded to any newer version.

NOTE: The only support available for BETA versions of Microsoft Clip Gallery is through the Office 2000 BETA newsgroups. Information on accessing the Newsgroups is available on pages 8 and 9 in the Getting Started Manual which accompanied the Office 2000 BETA software.

MORE INFORMATION
You can determine the version of Clip Gallery 5 the customer is using. To do this, follow these steps:


 * 1) On the Windows Start menu, point to Find, and click Files or Folders.
 * 2) In the Named field type ARTGALRY.EXE, and click Find Now.
 * 3) From the Version tab, you can determine which version the customer is using.

You can then check the File Version against the following information:
