Installing a new version of PowerData
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you already have a prior version of PowerData installed, and you are
using the Locale system (Workbench 2.1 or later), then you must re-install
the locale files. New strings have been added to PowerData's vocabulary,
and the version string is also contained in the catalog files. So please
let the installation programs install the locale files, even if you have
already done so in a previous installation of an older version.
Using v38.100 or v38.105? -Read this..!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The following is intended for people who are upgrading from v38.105 or
earlier, to v38.110 or later. If this is the first time you install
PowerData, then you need not concearn yourself with this.
On the other hand, if you are currently using v38.105 or earlier, then you
need to remove your current PowerData preferences file(s), from ENV: and
ENVARC:. The format of the preferences file has changed, and if you do not
remove the old prefs files, then you will get a complaint from PowerData
when you start it.
If you don't want to bother with removing the prefs files, then you can
just start PowerData, click away the requester saying that PowerData cannot
read the preferences file, and simply save the settings once again (using
the "save" gadget).
I'm sorry about this inconvenience. The preferences file format will not
change again :-)
