(HelpVersion: 1.01) Installation


To install the software, proceed as follows. You download the download file from our homepage. In the zip packed archive you will find some text files and an executable exe file which installs the software. During the installation you will be asked for the installation location. Please note that the installation in the standard "Program (x86)" folder requires administrator rights. During the installation, your computer will be checked for the presence of .net framework. If this is not available, an installation window appears. In this case please install the .net framework of the company Mircrosoft. This is not included in the setup and will be downloaded from the Internet during the process. The framework is absolutely necessary for our software. In the most cases the installation of the framework will not be necessary. On most computers are due to updates of the operating system more recent versions than we needed. After installation you will find the icon as usual in the Windows start bar. The first time you start the software, two more paths are created and files are copied. You will then be taken to a language selection menu and can use the software.

Update

You can install a new version of the software by rerunning the installation package. Do not forget to finish the software before. The old version will be replaced by the new version. All data and settings are retained. The next time you start the software, it detects that an update has been performed. If necessary, the software now makes adjustments to the database.
Special feature: Server / Client: If you use a central database, you will probably be able to access the server with different clients. In this case, a client that has not been updated may refuse to cooperate with the database. The background is that the first updated client brings the database up to date. Therefore, before installing an update, make sure that all users have closed the program. In addition, all clients should be upgraded at the same time.
