            ASTDU fails to make the fifth disk for French Microsoft Works

    PROBLEM

    When using ASTDU to create the backup disk set for the French version of
    Microsoft Works, ASTDU fails to make the fifth disk.  No error message is
    displayed, and it appears to the user that the process terminates properly after
    finishing the fourth disk.

    SOLUTION

    Download the FCWORKS.AST file from AST's BBS (817) 230-6850 and
    copy it into the C:\ASTDU directory of your hard drive.
    When prompted that this file already exists, choose to overwrite the file.

    Once you have replaced this file, you may run the ASTDU utility and create
    your backup disk set normally.

    SYSTEMS AFFECTED

    Any AST system that has been pre-loaded with French Microsoft Works
    version 3.0.
