Additional Y2K Support
SmartSuite for OS/2 Warp 4 Release 1.1 is designed to be year 2000-ready. It
has been fully tested and meets the Lotus guidelines for Year 2000
readiness, which means that when used in accordance with its associated
documentation, SmartSuite Release 1.1 is capable of correctly processing,
providing and/or receiving date data within and between the 20th and 21st
centuries, provided that all products (for example, hardware, software and
firmware) used with the product properly exchange accurate date data with
it.
Euro Support
You can insert the Euro symbol into any SmartSuite for OS/2 Warp 4
application, Release 1.1, if you are using:
* FixPak 6 or higher
* A code page that supports the Euro symbol
(see "System Requirements for Using the Euro" above)
* A font that contains the Euro symbol
(see "System Requirements for Using the Euro" above)
To insert the symbol, press ALT+213 and then press Enter. The Euro
symbol will appear in the document.
In SmartSuite for OS/2 Warp 4 Release 1.1, the Euro symbol is
defined as a currency format in 1-2-3, Word Pro, and Approach.
IBM WorkSpace on Demand installation documentation
Installing in WorkSpace On-Demand 2.0 is different than installing
on a file server. Complete instructions for installing Release 1.1
in the WorkSpace On-Demand 2.0 environment are available in the
READWSOD.TXT file located in the root directory of the SmartSuite
