MS Office 4.2.1 for Mac

[MacWettig]

I purchased Office 4.2.1 for use on a Mac PowerBook G3
Series 300 but it would not run with an ATI PCMCIA Card
driving a second monitor. Therefore it has never been used.
I still have the CD.

Now I want to install this on the same PowerBook G# which
has been upgraded to a Sonnet G4 500. When I try to
install, the Setup simply reports that "Microsoft Office
SetUp was not completed successfully!"

Will Office 4.2.1 function with the G4 upgrade? Ho can I
get a good install? Will appreciate any help.

Hi,

Office 4.2.1 will probably not install properly in OS 9.

Jim,

You are absolutely right. Office 4.2.1 will NOT run under MacOS 9.x. If
they want Office for MacOS 9,x I would recommend looking for either Office
98 or 2001.
