- Update of the Btrieve ISAM Driver
- =================================
- September 1993
-
-
- This driver is only for use by registered owners of Microsoft
- Access v1.1 and Visual Basic for Windows v3.0 - Professional
- Edition. By downloading these files, you are indicating that
- you own one of these two products.
-
-
- What does the update do for you
- -------------------------------
- This updated BTRV110.DLL now uses text indexes, with exceptions
- as described in the section titled "Using Btrieve Indexes" of
- the file BTRIEVE.TXT, which ships with Microsoft Access v1.1.
-
-
- How to install the update
- -------------------------
- Single User Installations:
- Make a backup of your current BTRV110.DLL by renaming the file,
- or by copying it to another location. Then simply copy the
- updated BTRV110.DLL to your \WINDOWS\SYSTEM subdirectory.
-
- Network Installations:
- (1) The network administrator should make a backup of the current
- BTRV110.DLL by renaming the file, or by copying it to another
- location, and then replace the old BTRV110.DLL on the network
- in the \ACCESS directory with the updated BTRV110.DLL.
- (2) The network administrator should also make this file available
- for those who installed Microsoft Access to their local
- drives. In such a case those users should also copy this file
- to their \WINDOWS\SYSTEM subdirectory.
-
- ==================================================================
- ************************** WARNING *******************************
- Due to the nature of Microsoft Access' setup program, if setup is
- run after updating the BTRV110.DLL file, the updated file will be
- replaced with an older version of the file unless:
-
- 1) Setup /n is run and "No" is selected in answer to the question
- "Do you want to install Microsoft Access on your hard disk?" OR
- 2) The Custom Installation option is chosen, and then from the
- Microsoft Access Setup Options dialog the "xBASE, Paradox,
- Btrieve drivers" option is unchecked (or the Select button for
- this option is used to deselect the Btrieve option), OR
- 3) The Minimum Installation option is chosen.
