Just a quick one here, I've been battling for the last few hours with an update to the PracticeWorks Software. Long story short I've figured the upgrade process out, it's a little different from the documented steps.
1. Perform the Pervasive SQL 10 SP3 update (from Autorun menu) on PWORKS server
2. Restart PWORKS server
3. Install PWorks update on server
4. Run through PWorks client install (part of the same install)
5. Rename the WSetup folder in your PWORKS data folder (say WSetup-olddate)
6. Copy the WSetup folder from your C:\PWORKS folder (this assumes data directory is different from install directory)
7. Launch PWorks on a client workstation
8. You're going to be told that you should not run different versions of BTRIEVE
9. Continue, then you'll be prompted to update the installation of PWorks
10. It will detect that Pervasive SQL is out of date, allow it to update
(Note at this point I kept getting told there was another copy open, when there wasn't on the network, so I just ignored the error)
11. Restart workstation
12. Run PWorks again, and choose Yes to update
13. When the upgrade has finished, you should be able to launch PWorks.
More notes to come after I work out the HICAPS updates a little better
