SYMPTOMS
Step 4 of the Setup Wizard has an edit region to input Copyright information. If the information entered in this region exceeds 214 characters in length, various errors occur when you run Setup on disk 1.



CAUSE
The Copyright edit region of Step 4 of the Setup Wizard contains more than 214 characters.



RESOLUTION
Keep the Copyright information to 214 or less characters in length.



STATUS
This behavior is by design.



MORE INFORMATION
Depending on the amount of characters actually entered, Setup fails in different ways. If the length entered is 215, Setup runs up through the Confirmation of Name & Organization. Once that is confirmed, Setup displays a message window stating, "Setup was not completed successfully" and then exits.

If the length entered is between 216 and 255 characters, Setup immediately presents a window stating "Setup was not completed successfully" and then exits.

If the length exceeds 255 characters, Setup starts and immediately gives the following two error messages and then exits:

Error One:

Window Title: Error in Table Syntax - Top Level

Message Text: Bad Setup Version Field.

Error Two:

Window Title: Setup Message

Message Text: Processing Top Level Information Field.
