Calendar can't find one or more of the files it needs to run.

If the Calendar still doesn't open, run the Internet Explorer setup program to install the missing files.

This behavior occurs if either of the following conditions are true:
 * You install Calendar version 1.0 and then, without restarting your computer, you immediately upgrade to Works 2000 or Works Suite 2000.

-or-
 * You install Calendar version 1.0 and then, without running the Calendar 1.0 program, you immediately upgrade to Works 2000 or Works Suite 2000.



RESOLUTION
