SGML: "Could Not Open the File..." During Setup

 * }

Q126043

-

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft SGML Author for Word, version 1.0
 * Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 6.0, 6.0a, 6.0c

-

SYMPTOMS
When you are running a workstation copy of Word from a server that is read- only, and you attempt to install SGML Author, you receive error messages such as the following

Could not open the file named E:\WINWORD\SGMLCONV\AVEQ.DLL

where E: is the network drive on which Word is installed.

CAUSE
SGML Author Setup is attempting to install converters to the same directory as Word. Since the directory where Word is located is read-only, Setup cannot install the files.

Method 1
Change the network Word directory to read-write access.

Method 2
Temporarily change the server from read-only to read-write. Install SGML Author on the server, and then install a workstation copy of SGML Author.

The files will already be on the server, so Setup won't try to install them there.
