Y2K Analyzer Tool Does Not Recognize Schedule+ 7.0a (242581)

SYMPTOMS

The Microsoft Year 2000 Product Analyzer (Y2K Analyzer) tool identifies Microsoft Schedule+ version 7.0a as Schedule+ version 7.0. You should check which version of Schedule+ 7.0 you are running by clicking About Microsoft Schedule+ on the Help menu.

If you have version 7.0a and you apply the software update for version 7.0, you will receive the following error message:

Schedule+ could not load a required dll. Try running Schedule+ setup again.

CAUSE

There are three separate Y2K software updates for Schedule+, one for each of the three versions, 7.0, 7.0a, and 7.5. Applying the incorrect update causes this problem.

RESOLUTION

Reinstall Schedule+ from its original source, and verify the correct version by clicking About Microsoft Schedule+ on the Help menu. Then apply the correct software update for that version.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.

MORE INFORMATION

The Y2K Analyzer is a tool to help assess the readiness of your computer system by conducting an inventory of Microsoft software installed on your computer. The Y2K Analyzer scans your hard drive and creates a report listing the Y2K readiness status of all Microsoft software found on your computer.

The Y2K Analyzer mistakenly reports Schedule+ version 7.0a as Schedule+ version 7.0. This is significant because there are separate Y2K updates for Schedule+ 7.0, 7.0a, and 7.5. If the 7.0 update is incorrectly applied to version 7.0a, the error condition described above occurs.
