Updating Your Software
How you update your
software depends on which version of Pricelist Pro you have currently
installed. Versions 3.0.176 and higher have added components to check the SMR website for updates. If your software directed you to this page, you
have version 3.0.176 or newer. These versions can be updated to the
current version with a simple software patch. If you are using a version
prior to 3.0.176, you will need to perform a re-install so that additional
components can be loaded on your computer. Note to unregistered users: If
your 30 day trial has expired, updating or re-installing the software will
not re-start your trial period.

prior to 3.0.176 and need to re-install the software

Backup your Data |
|
1. Create a folder on your
hard drive to hold a backup copy of your Pricelist Professional Data.
This can be done from the "My Computer" window or the Windows Explorer
by opening your hard drive, (Usually C:) then choosing "New" > "Folder"
from the "File" menu. Give the new folder a name such as "Pricelist
Backup." Do not create this folder within the Pricelist Professional
program folder! |
|
|
2. Start Pricelist Professional v3 as
usual. Open the "Utilities" menu, and choose "Data Utilities." From the
"Data Utilities" submenu, choose "Backup Data." The "Backup Your Data
Files" screen appears. Click on the ellipsis (...) button and locate the
folder you created. Click on the "Back Up" button to begin the data
backup process. |
|
|
3.
Assuming the backup process completes
without incident, you are ready to continue. Go to the Windows explorer
and open the backup folder you created. Verify that a new group of files
(about 60 files) has been created in the folder. If the files have
not been created, do not continue. Try the backup process again and
ensure that you specify the correct folder. |
|
|
4. Assuming you have
pictures stored with your data, you will want to manually backup your
picture files. To do so, Locate and open your Pricelist Professional
data folder. This folder is usually called: C:\Program Files\Pricelist
Professional v3 if you did not set the software up as a networked
installation. If this is a networked installation, you would have
created the data folder when you first ran the software. Select the
folders: "DataPics", "Screen_Art", and "Embroidery_Art," and copy these
folders with their contents to the backup folder. |
|
|
|
Uninstall the Old Version of Pricelist Pro |
|
1. If you are still
running Pricelist Professional v3, exit the program. Make certain you
have a backup of your data and pictures before continuing. |
|
|
2. From the Windows Control Panel, open
the "Add or Remove Programs" tool. Locate Pricelist Professional in the
list of programs. Click the "Remove" button and follow the instructions. |
|
|
|
Install the New Version of Pricelist Pro |
|
1. Double Click on the
file you download from this page. Follow the instructions to setup the
new version of Pricelist Professional. |
PrcPro30Setup.exe |
|
2. Run the new version of Pricelist
Professional. The setup wizard will appear. Make sure you setup the
correct program type: Embroidery, Screen Printing, or combined. If you
were running a networked installation, locate your network data folder.
This folder should not have been removed when you uninstalled the old
version. Click "Continue" to advance to the second screen of the setup
wizard. |
|
|
3. If you were not
previously running a networked version: Where the Setup Wizard asks if
you wish to import your old data into the new program, click "Yes."
Below that, click on the
ellipsis (...) button and locate the
file "SMR3.DBC" in your backup folder. Select this file and Click the
"OK" button in the "File Locate" dialog. Do not perform this step if
your data is located in a networked data folder, as your data is still
there.
Click "Finish." Pricelist
Pro informs you as to the success of your setup and must be restarted. |
|
| 4. If you manually created a
backup of your picture files, AND you imported your data in the last
step, copy the
folders: "DataPics", "Screen_Art",
and "Embroidery_Art," from your backup folder to the new Pricelist Pro
data folder. Pricelist Pro is now ready to run. |
|
| 5. Important: If your
computer has a firewall software running, your firewall will likely warn
you that Pricelist Professional is attempting the access the internet
the first time you run the new software. If you do not instruct your
firewall to grant internet access, Pricelist Pro will take additional
time to startup each time you use it, will be unable to check for
updates, and will be unable to send email to your customers. Please
instruct your firewall software not to block Pricelist Pro from internet
access. Pricelist Pro does not send us any information about you except
when you register the software. |
