SUPPLEMENT DATED JUNE 15, 1999 TO THE
Statement of Additional Information dated June 4, 1999,
For Van Kampen Technology Fund
The first paragraph of the section of the Statement of Additional
Information entitled "WAIVER OF CLASS B AND CLASS C CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES
CHARGE -- REDEMPTION IN CONNECTION WITH CERTAIN DISTRIBUTIONS FROM RETIREMENT
PLANS" is deleted and replaced with the following:
The Fund will waive the CDSC-Class B and C when a total or
partial redemption is made in connection with certain distributions
from retirement plans. The charge will be waived upon the tax-free
rollover or transfer of assets to another retirement plan invested in
one or more Participating Funds; in such event, as described below,
the Fund will "tack" the period for which the original shares were
held on to the holding period of the shares acquired in the transfer
or rollover for purposes of determining what, if any, CDSC-Class B and
C is applicable in the event that such acquired shares are redeemed
following the transfer or rollover. The charge also will be waived on
any redemption which results from the return of an excess contribution
pursuant to Section 408(d)(4) or (5) of the Code, the return of excess
deferral amounts pursuant to Code Section 401(k)(8) or 402(g)(2), the
financial hardship of the employee pursuant to Code Section
401(k)-1(d)(2), or from the death or disability of the employee (see
Code Section 72(m)(7) and 72(t)(2)(A)(ii)). In addition, the charge
will be waived on any minimum distribution required to be distributed
in accordance with Code Section 401(a)(9).
