RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, you must re-run the SR-1 Update with verbose logging turned on. To do this, follow these steps:

On the Start menu, click Run.
In the Open box, type the following command line:
source path\Setup.exe /L2 /V
where source path is the full path to Setup.exe for the SR-1 Update, according to the following table.
```
   SR-1 Source                <source path>
   ------------------------------------------------------

   You previously attempted
   the SR-1 Update from the
   Office Update download     C:\Windows\Temp\SR1patch\ 

   SR-1 Update CD             <CD-ROM drive letter>:\Setup.exe
						
```
This creates the Setup log file and a verbose Windows Installer log file in the \Temp\SR1Patch folder.
```
Log file for           Log file name
---------------------------------------------------------------

Setup.exe              Office 2000 SR-1 Setup(####).txt
Windows Installer      Office 2000 SR-1 Setup(####)_MsiExec.txt
					
```
The #### characters in the log file names are numbers that begin with 0001. They increment by 1 if you run the update multiple times. So the log file with the highest number is the log file for the last time that you ran the update.

NOTE: If you do not see the text "VERBOSE" in the first line of text of the "Office 2000 SR-1 Setup(####)_MsiExec.txt" file, you did not create the verbose log file correctly, and you must repeat the preceding command line with the correct command-line switches.
Open the Windows Installer log file by using WordPad, and search for Return value 3.
Back up a few lines in the log file to the line that contains the file that the update is having problems patching.

For the 2318 error, it is similar to the following:
```
MSI (c) (8B:87): Note: 1: 2318 2: C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\Ado\ADO210.CHM
						
```
For the 1326 error, it is similar to the following:
```
PatchFiles: File: C:\WINDOWS\system32\SQLSOLDB.HLP,  Directory: C:\WINDOWS\system32\,  Size:
						
```
This line identifies the problematic file and its correct location on your hard disk.
If the file listed on this line of the log file is listed in the table in step 6, continue with the steps in this article. If the file is not listed in the table, please contact Microsoft Product Support Services.

Copy the files listed in the following table from your Office 2000 CD into the specified folder location on your hard disk.

Sqlsoldb.hlp  \System                      See NOTE below.

NOTE: If the problematic file is Sqlsoldb.hlp, identify the correct hard disk location for this file from the log file line in step 4. Then copy Sqlsoldb.hlp from the \System folder on the Office 2000 CD to the hard disk location listed in step 4.

Re-run the SR-1 Update with verbose logging enabled. If you encounter another 2318 or 1326 error message, reapply steps 3 through 6 for the latest problem file listed in the log file.
