Installation Components

In order to use the Client, the three components of this application must be installed:

Open Data Base Connectivity (ODBC) Driver - enables the Client application to access data in the database via SQL

Microsoft Access Runtime - engine used for sorting, searching, and filtering the database when processing a query

Client application - tool used for generating views from the database

The ODBC driver and MS Access Runtime are distributed to the administrator on a CD-ROM. After these components are installed, the Client application should be downloaded from 8e6’s Web site and installed on the workstation.

NOTE: Before you begin,verify that the CD-ROM includes folders named MS RUNTIME and ODBC DRIVER. When install- ing these components, the ODBC Driver folder must be opened first, followed by the MS Runtime folder.

TIP: If you wish to install a new release of the Client to replace a prior version of this application on your workstation, refer to the following instructions under the Download and Install the Client sub-section in this chapter:
