SUMMARY
The Setup program in Microsoft Word for Windows does not recognize DEC Pathworks 4.x &quot;DISK SERVICE&quot; as a network drive. To do a network server installation in this situation, you must use a &quot;FILE SERVICE&quot; while using DEC Pathworks 4.x.

Windows considers DEC Pathworks 4.x &quot;DISK SERVICE&quot; to be a local disk drive. Windows considers DEC Pathworks 4.x &quot;FILE SERVICE&quot; to be a network drive.

This issue only pretains to Pathworks on a VAX. Pathworks may be used on a Vax or an OS/2 server. A VAX can be configured to include FILE SERVICES and DISK SERVICES. The OS/2 server can only use FILE SERVICES.
