Has anyone managed to get GW 5.2 client working on a W2k professional workstation? I have been unable to get the GW address book to function at all and any information on where the Windows Messaging System for w2k is (that can be installed seperatly as suggested by w2k when you try to run the GW client setup) would be appreciated.<br>

Thanks<br>

yes, you need to run the WMS update patch from Novell first, and then it works fine.
 
My GW 5.2 will only work on my Win 2000 Pro workstation at the end of the installation. Once I shut down GW I get the famous 80004002 OLE error message. I installed the WMS file provided by Novell, but that didn't work. So I blew off Win 2K and reinstalled. Then the WMS update and the GW 5.2 install. The results were the same. Microsofts tech support was no help, since they don't consider problems with Novell software to be their problem.

I also cannot get the client to install or run properly, I have installed the winntwms.exe I have tried using Windows Messaging, the full installation of the client the workstation, leave messaging alone, install messaging. I want my email. Let me know if anyone knows the scoop.

Thanks
