SUMMARY
When you install Microsoft Bookshelf for Windows on a computer where Microsoft Word for Windows is installed, you may be able to use features that integrate the two products.

Due to the design differences between 16-bit and 32-bit programs, 16-bit versions of Bookshelf can only be integrated with 16-bit versions of Word for Windows, and 32-bit versions of Bookshelf can only be integrated with 32-bit versions of Word for Windows.

Because Word 2000, Word 97 for Windows, and Word for Windows 95 are 32-bit programs, you can only integrate these programs with the following 32-bit versions of Bookshelf for Windows:


 * Bookshelf 2000 for Windows
 * Bookshelf 99 for Windows
 * Bookshelf 98 for Windows
 * Bookshelf 1996-97 for Windows
 * Bookshelf 95 for Windows 95

Because Word for Windows, versions 6.0 and 2.0, are 16-bit programs, you can only integrate these programs with the following 16-bit versions of Bookshelf for Windows:


 * Bookshelf for Windows, 1995 Edition (Word for Windows 6.0 only)

Bookshelf for Windows, 1994 Edition

NOTE: Because of integration design changes in the 16-bit version of Bookshelf 95, you cannot integrate Word for Windows, version 2.0, with any version of Bookshelf 95.



MORE INFORMATION
If you own the 16-bit version of Bookshelf 95, you can request a copy of the 32-bit version of Bookshelf 95 while supplies last. To do so, dial the following telephone number:

(800) 360-7561

You can determine if you have the 16-bit version or the 32-bit version of Bookshelf 95 by looking at the label on your Bookshelf 95 CD-ROM. The 16-bit version of Bookshelf 95 has a "Microsoft Windows Compatible" logo on the cover of the CD-ROM jewel case booklet, and the 32-bit version of Bookshelf 95 has a "Designed for Windows 95" logo on the cover of the CD-ROM jewel case booklet.
