This is stated in the technical bulletin at http://documents.bmc.com/supportu/documents/82/87/68287/68287.pdf. "In the short term, this issue will be fixed by disabling the Crystal Reports uninstaller in the BMC Remedy Action Request System(r) 7.0.01 Patch 002 BMC Remedy User uninstall script." -David J.

Also, the same issue corrupts other Office 2003 products. In general to get to the Product Defects page: 1. Log into the Support site. 2. Click the Issue Management link 3. There will be a link to the product defects page 4. I found Defect SW00257321 by a. Typing (can't stand the menu) "AR System" in Product Name field b. Type "7.0.1" for Version (nope version number names are not consistent) c. Type "User Tool" for Problem Area 1 d. Type "Uninstall" for Keyword (obviously type everything without the quotes. 5. You will find the very short summary that states: "User Tool uninstall results in failure to launch Office 2003." 6. The Resolution is "Fixed". Yep that's it. Technical Bulletin lookup (this is where the BMC Support site Shines) 1. Log into the Support Site 2. Click the Product Documentation link. 3. Click BMC Remedy AR System Server under the products list. 4. Under the Version column, click 7.0.01 5. Under Techinal Bulletin it will be the second one listed. The description is: "Per SW00257321, uninstalling BMC Remedy User 7.x might cause Microsoft Office 2003 or Microsoft Visual Studio to stop working. This technical bulletin describes a temporary workaround for that issue." Hope this helps you, Michelle -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Lammey, Peter A.

Ive been searching around the supportweb and now with its new redesign I cant find it. I tried even listening through BMC Supportweb's online tutorials on the new web site's setup but they didn't seem to help. The bug I am most interested in is the status of the 7.X User Client bug where the Uninstall causes Microsoft Word and Crystal files to become corrupt.

What we would do for a BMC Remedy Product Defects page like that. Could someone on the web design team at BMC please take a look at the page? (Yes, I have already submitted an enhancement request several months ago) Here are the things that I believe some of us have been asking for that are included on the page. 1. Detailed description of the bug (that 128 character cut-off summary has got to go) 2. Workaround (if available) 3. Evaluation of the bug including the description of the fix 4. Related bugs (with a link) 5. Not just a Status, but the actual Fix 6. The release in which the bug was/will be fixed! 7. Repeat of 6: "The release in which the bug was/will be Fixed!"
