SYMPTOMS
When you install the Microsoft Outlook 97 Rules Wizard add-in, new Outlook help files installed with the Microsoft Office 97 SR-1 patch are no longer available.



CAUSE
The Office SR-1 patch installs a new Outlhlp.cnt file that contains links to new help files designed for Outlook 8.02. When you install the Rules Wizard, the Outlhlp.cnt file is overwritten with the old file designed for Outlook 8.0, and the links to the new files are lost.



RESOLUTION
Copy the newer Outlhlp.cnt file from the Office directory of the SR-1 CD over the older one, usually found in the Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office, directory.



MORE INFORMATION
If you install the Rules Wizard from either the ValuPack or from the Microsoft Web site, after installing the SR-1 patch, the new Outlhlp.cnt file for Outlook 8.02 will be overwritten with the old file designed for Outlook 8.0.
