SUMMARY
The ValuPack included with Outlook 97 version 8.03 contains items that enhance the functionality of Outlook as well as items not directly related to Outlook. The contents of the ValuPack differs from the ValuPack supplied with Outlook 97 version 8.0 and Office 97.



Installing ValuPack Components
In some cases there are special packages for Windows 95 and Windows NT. If you are using Windows NT, special care should be taken to select the file names which are appended with the letters "nt". For example, the Outlook converter package name for Windows 95 is "outcvt", while the package for Windows NT is named "outcvtnt." To install the ValuPack components, follow these steps:
 * 1) Locate the appropriate subfolder within the ValuPack folder.
 * 2) Run Setup directly from the folder.
