>Thank you for using Microsoft Office 97 - or any of its stand-alone
>applications - and taking the time to register with us. As a registered
>Office 97 user and a valued customer, we want to make sure you stay
>informed about product updates.
>
>The Office 97 Service Release is designed to provide corporations with
>an additional method of sharing files between Office 97 users and users
>of previous versions of Microsoft Word. But, even if you don't require
>this function, you may want to install the Service Release if you:
>
>* Regularly exchange documents with users of previous versions of Word *
>There are methods already built into your version of Office 97 that let
>you share files with previous versions of Word. But we've included an
>additional converter that lets you save your Word 97 documents to an
>older format that can be opened and read with previous versions of Word.
>
>* Use Microsoft Outlook for your Internet e-mail *
>Outlook 97 now has improved support for POP3 and SMTP Internet e-mail.
>
>* Distribute a Microsoft Access Report via e-mail *
>Now you can send a snapshot of your final report to your associates
>instead of sending the entire database.
