The file available for download below is an executable patch for the Windows 2000 operating system program used in conjunction with the Learn Office 2000 series. This file represents a solution to the font issue that occurs when Learn Office 2000 series is installed on a Windows 2000 operating system.

First, download this patch and by double clicking this active file and saving it to your hard drive.

w2kpatch.exe (this is the file link)

To install and run this patch effectively, please install one of the original Learn Office 2000 series titles (Learn Office 2000, Learn Access 2000, Learn Excel 2000, Learn PowerPoint 2000, or Learn Word 2000) onto a Windows 2000 operating system. Before the patch is installed, the font displayed in the text bubbles of our OnDemand product will appear too small to read.

With OnDemand closed, please navigate to the location of the w2kpatch.exe. Double click the executable file and accept all of the default prompts for the installation wizard. Once the patch installation has been completed, the font in the text bubbles should appear at a normal, readable size.

Please note that if the Learn Office 2000 series content is uninstalled from the hard drive, the patch will also be automatically uninstalled at that time.

Also, it is not necessary to use this patch on the Learn Windows 2000 title. The solution for that title has been built directly into the install.
