SYMPTOMS
If you specify a custom directory name that contains Cyrillic characters when you install Microsoft SQL Server 7.0 on your computer, the installation may be unsuccessful.



CAUSE
This behavior occurs because SQL Server 7.0 does not recognize Cyrillic characters in installation or data directory names.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, use standard ASCII characters for SQL Server 7.0 installation and data directory names.

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft SQL Server 7.0.
