* Follow the directions on the dialogs you will be
shown- they will guide you through the installation.
* Accept the default location for the NFA CBT.
note: The entire install (NFA CBT Database System, and NFA CBT)

troubleshooting for a message you may get during the install.
**********************************************************************
Running the NFA CBT:

Continuing with the above example, you would click on the
icon labeled "Townhouse".

The CBT Assistant and sending records to NFA from your local site

a student takes the test. Rather, it should be used to process groups
of student records. The student records should be processed
approximately 50-75 student records should be processed at a time.
Consult the help file that comes with the NFA CBT Database System
for more information on how to send the records to NFA.

TROUBLESHOOTING:
1. During the installation, you may be prompted with the
message:
"The OLE system files are in-use and cannot be updated. The
installation will restart windows to update OLE. You must
re-run this installation after windows restarts to complete
the installation."
This message is normal. Restart windows, then run the
installation again. You will not receive the above message
again.
2. When the database system has been completely installed, you may be
prompted to restart your machine depending on your computer's
configuration. In this case, go ahead and restart, then run the
setup program on your CD again to install the NFA CBT. Only
the database system has been installed at this time.
