Just install the new version. A database update will run the first time you access the RecordEditor.
As part of Version 0.68 changes, I moved the location of the back end Database (Windows). This was done to make the package more compatible with Windows Vista / Windows 7
| Operating System | Old Location |
| Windows XP | c:\Program Files\RecordEdit\HSQL\Database\recordedit.script |
| Windows Vista/7 | c:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\RecordEdit\HSQL\Database\recordedit.script |
| New Location (Windows 7 / Vista) | C:\Users\<user_id>\RecordEditor_HSQL\Database\recordedit.script |
| New Location (Windows XP) | C:\Documents and Settings\<user_id>\RecordEditor_HSQL\Database\recordedit.script |
Where <user_id> is the Windows logon id.
You can backup your RecordLayouts to XML files and latter reload them. Backing up the Layouts to XML should only take short amount of time, so is worth doing. Steps are
On the the Copy Layout Screen you need to enter
| Source Panel | ||
| Database | Select the appropriate DB | |
| Layout | Enter % to select all layouts | |
| Only Listed | Select to only extract Layouts that are listed in the editor | |
| Destination Panel | ||
| Database | Select File | |
| Output Format | Select RecordEditor XML | |
| Output Directory | Select Select a Directory to write the XML files |
When done, hit the Copy button to create the XML Layouts
To reload the XML Layouts
