If you are trying to start up a Microsoft Office 2000 product or an add-in, you may encounter the following error:

This means that the F: drive is not currently mapped to any device or network share. You can map it to the correct network share (that removes the error and allows add-ins) by following these steps:

1. Exit the Office 2000 application (e.g., Word, Excel, etc.)

2. Map the F: network drive to \\css1\applications:

   Either of these methods will work the same way:

   1. The GUI way:
      1. right-click on My Computer
      2. select Map Network Drive
      3. Select the F: drive
      4. Type:
         \\css1\applications

      5. If you choose "Reconnect at login":

         F: drives don't always get mapped for the DOU110 computers with the Zip drives. That's the only known problem with keeping the connection.

   2. Open an MS-DOS Prompt window and type:
      net use F: \\css1\applications /persistent:yes

3. Restart the Office 2000 application (and try the add-in again, if desired).
