2244.0. "Office97 without ILockByte" by BER::dhcp-185-6-159.beo.dec.com::hbfms::STRAUCHP (Petra Strauch @BEO) Wed May 21 1997 18:09

Hi,

a customer is using WinWord97 under LNX 3.0.8 on VMS. 
For all object classes derived from "Text" ILockByte is disabled. 
When editing two documents, two WinWord sessions are opened.
With WinWord 6 it worked fine.

Any ideas? Thanks for help

2244.1Registry error ?elec1.uto.dec.com::wijermars_vFri May 23 1997 16:068
Hi,

This is mostly a problem in the registry.
Unfortunally winword97 does not come with a .reg program to setup the registry.
You would have to check the registry manually

2244.2Window classes changed for office97elec1.uto.dec.com::wijermars_vFri May 23 1997 17:3515
Hi,

Having talked about it with a colleque, we came to the conclusion that the problem is that your 
version of the LNX client does not know the Windows classes used by WinWord97.
The latest 308 kit has these entries in.
You could also add the classes manual in the registry.
See note 249 for details on how to do this

The class definitions are as follows:
The first string is CLASS0, the second CLASS1 etc
 
 "WINWORD" , "OpusApp"       ,"_WwB"      ,	"_WwB"	    //word97
 "POWERPNT", "PP97FrameClass", "MDIClient",	"mdiClass"  //PowerPoint97

  Hi,
  I have the same problem.
  I read note #249 and this topic.
  So I tried it but two WinWord97 sessions aren't opened.   

  I added the following lines to C:\Windows\environ.ini

	 [Environment]
	 WINWORDCLASS0=OpusApp
	 WINWORDCLASS1=_WwB
	 WINWORDCLASS2=_WwB
	
   Is it not correct?

   Best Regards,
   Masako   
2244.4Still 2 Word sessionsBER::dhcp-185-6-159.beo.dec.com::hbfms::STRAUCHPPetra Strauch @BEOTue May 27 1997 12:0410
Hi,

my customer changed the registry as you described and most of 
his problems are solved. 
But still 2 Word sessions are opened when editing 2 LNX document 
objects.
I'll copy him the latest 3.0.8 client kit. But what does the client 
installation write into the registry what he missed in doing manually?

Take care here. In both the 322 and the latest 308 clients there is a bug
introduced which prevents checking the CLASS entries in the registry.
This regression took place when support for Office'97 was build in.

The bug will be solved by the end of this week and new clients will be
available early next week.

Regards,
Jos
