INTRODUCTION
The October 2003 Visual Studio .NET Documentation Update provides the latest version of the Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003 documentation. This article discusses why you may require more than 300 megabytes (MB) of free disk space to install the October 2003 Visual Studio .NET Documentation Update.



MORE INFORMATION
The October 2003 Visual Studio .NET Documentation Update contains 48 files. After you install this update, if you previously set certain components of the Visual Studio .NET 2003 documentation to run from source, the %ProgramFiles%\MSDN\2003FEB\1033 installation folder contains files that the update does not contain.

Certain files that the October 2003 Visual Studio .NET Documentation Update contains are part of multifile components. Because components must be either local or set to run from source, the update installs the updated files and then installs the additional files for the components that you previously set to run from source. The update installs these additional files from the source that you use to run the components.

If you installed the Visual Studio .NET 2003 documentation with the maximum possible number of components to run from source, the installation folder contains 935 files. The files have a combined size of 424,703,467 bytes. After you install the October 2003 Visual Studio .NET Documentation Update, the installation folder contains 1,024 files. The files have a combined size of 747,397,399 bytes. Therefore, you require more than 300 MB of free disk space. The installation folder also contains 89 additional files.

Note If you set any components of the Visual Studio .NET 2003 documentation to run from source, you must have access to the source that you use to run the components at the time that you install the update.
