2063.0. "NT V4.0 TL V2.7 OFF 97" by ACISS2::FLOYD () Fri Mar 14 1997 17:03

    Windows NT V4.0
    Teamlinks V2.7
    MS Office 97
    
    Installed Teamlinks V2.7 and the Installed MS Office 97.  When
    Teamlinks trys to read a Word document, the following error occurs:
    
    Error launching application using registration database.
    
    Thinking MAPI may be butting heads, I reinstalled Teamlinks V2.7 with
    MAPI off.  It didn't make any difference.

You'll find other, recent, notes about this that
offer workarounds. (e.g., 2010.*)

Launching will be better in TeamLinks V3, but you
might want to search in here for an Office 97 FAQ
that describes our current status with Office 97.

2063.2TAMARA::laceup.zko.dec.com::tamara::fitzellIt's not a bug it's functionally challenged !Fri Mar 14 1997 17:3112
If you installed it in the default location which has long names you will 
have to shorten the names in the command line for Word. From explorer go to 
View->Options->File Types  scroll down to Microsoft Word Document and then 
hit EDIT. Under Actions, open should be BOLDED,  hit EDIT again.
In the "Application used to perform Action" edit box shorten any long names 
for mine it ended up like this C:\PROGRA~1\WINWORD\WINWORD.EXE /n
Just in case you are unaware; for NT there is no TeamLinks integration with 
32 bit applications.
