After downloading the latest version of the software and double-clicking the EPSetup.exe to begin the Installation Wizard, choose Update a Previous Version to perform an update of a single user installation or of shared files on the server in a multi-user installation.

Update Single User

1.Make sure that you have a current backup of your data before proceeding. Click [Next] to continue with this option.

3.Click [Next] to continue.
4.Choose EventPro Standard Edition and click [Next].
5.You must now verify the location of the EventPro application and data files. These folders should be set to the correct locations, but if not, you can reset them here. Click [Next] to continue.

7.Once installation is complete, click [Finish].

Update Multi-User Server

In a multi-user environment, this update will only update the shared files on the server. Each time a user runs EventPro from a workstation, the loader application performs a check against each required file on the server and any new updates are automatically copied to the workstation prior to running EventPro. Therefore, updates only need to be installed once to the shared folder on the server and all workstations will update themselves as required.

NOTE: Updating EventPro and Database Rights

Note that in order to update the database after a program update, you will require certain user rights.  See Rights to Databases.

If you do not have the appropriate rights, contact your System Administrator or IT Department.

If you are the System Administrator or IT Department in charge of updating the program, and you have the appropriate rights to update the database, you may want to update the database at the end of each update/upgrade process, so that other users do not require additional rights to the database.
