Installing the Host Programs

Prior to uploading the host programs into a ‘clean’ Account which will be used as the master Utilities Account, they are installed on the client machine into the HOSTPROG directory.

The host program files used during the upload process are provided during the Host Access installation process.  To install the Host Programs, aka Host Utility Files, on the client machine,

  1. Run the installer and select the Custom radio button in the Setup Type dialog.

  2. Select the Host Utility Files drop down box, not the +/- tree node, from the Custom Setup dialog

  3. Select the option labelled,

  4. “This feature, and all subfeatures, will be installed on local hard drive.”

  5. Click the “Next >” button on the Custom Setup dialog to continue with the installation.

Note: Prime INFORMATION and some UniVerse (Prime/Ideal flavours) users should read VOC for MD wherever MD is mentioned below.
