Progress Product Upgrades

The user might upgrade from a Progress product that does not support full development to either the 4GL Development System, ProVISION, ProVISION Plus, or WebSpeed. If the user’s application database had previously been restricted, and you now want to allow the user to run your application using the capabilities of their new, less restrictive version of Progress, you must follow these steps:

  1. Create a new basic database.
  2. Distribute the new basic database to the user.

The user must use the dump/load facility you provided to dump the existing database, make a copy of the new basic database, and reload the existing data into that new database.

If the new version of Progress is being installed in a different directory than the old version, UNIX users can use the _tlr module to edit the value of the DLC variable in your application scripts.
