= SYMPTOMS =

DEC Pathworks version 4.21 must be installed on the Pathworks server to install PowerPoint for Windows version 3.0 using the Network Administrator Setup option (Setup /A). Versions of the server software earlier than 4.21 may cause Setup to fail with the following error message:

Setup cannot create the destination directory.

= RESOLUTION =

There are currently no known workarounds for this problem. The only solution is to upgrade the Pathworks server software to version 4.21 or later.

For more information, or to obtain an upgrade to the Pathworks server software, contact the Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) at (800) 354-9000
