SYMPTOMS
When you install Microsoft Visio 2002, you may receive the following error message:

Warning 2893. The Control 'Company' on dialog 'UserInfo' cannot accept values longer than 52 characters. The value 'NAME' exceeds this limit, and has been truncated.

When you click OK, Setup continues.



CAUSE
This problem can occur when you specify a company name that is more than 52 characters in length. You can specify a company name by using any of the following methods:
 * Insert a line identifying the COMPANYNAME property in the Options section of the Setup.ini file.


 * Type a name in the Organization box in step 5 of the Custom Installation Wizard.


 * Append the COMPANYNAME property to the command line when you run Office Setup from the Run dialog box (click Run on the Windows Start menu).

NOTE: Both the User Name and the Organization Name boxes on the Customer Information page of the Custom Installation Wizard are limited to 51 characters.



RESOLUTION
To work around this problem, click OK when the error message appears, and Setup will finish normally.

NOTE: If you use this method, the company name will be truncated at 52 characters.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the &quot;Applies to&quot; section.
