Full
Version Download This

PERFORM
A FULL BACKUP OF ESC BEFORE
UPGRADING THE SOFTWARE.
These
are both full version downloads
of ESC. Once downloaded, double-click
on the .exe file (ESC50133CS.exe
or ESC50133SU.exe). This will
start the installation of
the new version of ESC. Select
the "Remove" option first
if you are already running
a previous version of ESC.
Once the removal process has
been completed, double-click
on the same .exe file again
(ESC50133CS.exe or ESC50133SU.exe),
and it will start the installation
of the new version. Follow
the default prompts. This
same procedure must be done
on every computer that is
running a previous version
of ESC.
You
must be running Version 5.1.x
to properly
download and install these
patches.
If you are below Version 5.1.0,
it will make your software
unusable.
Download time
is approximately 20 minutes
with a 28K - 33K modem. After
you have downloaded the file
to the hard drive on your
server, exit the ESC
software. Then locate
the file with Windows Explorer,
and then double-click on the
filename. Click on "Unzip"
and it will unzip the files
into their proper directories.
Run
the ESC software, and the
data conversion will begin
automatically. If someone
is still logged in at this
point, the software will notify
you, and the data conversion
will not occur at this time.
Data conversion will
take approximately 1 to 10
minutes.
This same .exe file may be shared on the network so
that all computers using
the ESC software can be updated
in the same way. Versions
on all workstations need to
be the same version.
Make sure that all other programs
are closed, and that
no one else is running ESC
when these upgrades are being
performed.Do
not try to log in to the server while
it is converting the data.
