SUMMARY
The Microsoft Productivity Pack version 1.0 was designed specifically for Microsoft Windows version 3.0. To run the Productivity Pack with the Microsoft Windows operating system version 3.1, you need to obtain the updated version designed for Windows 3.1; otherwise, you may experience compatibility problems. In addition, much of the information in Learning Windows is irrelevant in Windows 3.1 because of the extensive changes in this version of Windows.

For information about obtaining the updated Microsoft Productivity Pack, contact your software vendor or call Microsoft Sales Information Center (MSIC) at (800) 426-9400. If you are outside the United States, contact the Microsoft subsidiary for your area.
