PC Adm: Doc Err: Modifying Template Information

 Last reviewed: March 31, 1995
Article ID: Q127918
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Mail for PC Networks, versions 3.2 and 3.2a

SYMPTOMS

Page 328 of version 3.2 Microsoft Mail "Administrator's Guide" states the following: 

   If you are modifying only the template information, you can omit
   the line containing the modified address, as in this example:

      M George Jones
      - Title:/Sales Rep
      - Local:/3423
      - Department:/Sales
The above statement is in error. If you modify template information without the complete address, it will cause the Import program (IMPORT.EXE) to display an Error 72 when the (M)odify switch is used, and an Error 20 if the (T)emplate switch is used.

MORE INFORMATION

When you use the Import program to modify template information, you must include the complete address as shown below: 

   M George Jones
        PCM:NETWORK/POSTOFFICE/GEORGEJ
   - Title:/Sales Rep
   - Local:/3423
   - Department:/Sales
The information on page 328 of the "Administrator's Guide" refers to a specification for Mail that was never implemented.
