About this patch II. Issues resolved in this patch III. Installing this patch IV. Customer Support ================================================================== I. About this patch ================================================================== The Satellite Forms 6.0.1 Patch SF-60101 contains updated Satellite Forms redistribution kit files for PalmOS. Updated versions of the Redist installer, redist merge module, and selected OCX and DLL files are included. The patch is delivered as a self extracting WinZip exe file. ================================================================== II. Issues resolved in this patch ================================================================== This patch resolves the following issues: * BUG # SF-00069 - When the SatForms redistribution kit for Palm is installed on an end user machine (without installing App Designer), there is an error message at the end of the process that says "Satellite Forms is not installed properly...". This error message is also displayed when you run the RdkInst utility on that end user PC. This problem has been corrected with this patch. * BUG # SF-00055 - SatForms 6.0.1 Hotsync ActiveX control does not show the green globe icon when placed on a form in the development tool that is using the activex control (eg. Visual Basic or Access). The green globe icon does not show up when installed to a tool palette. This has been corrected with this patch. * BUG # SF-00074 - The SatForms 6.0.1 SDK Conduit records the name SatForms SDK 5.2.2 to the Hotsync log instead of 6.0.1. This has been corrected with this patch. ================================================================== III. Installing this patch ================================================================== Instructions are provided for installing the patch files both on your development PC and also on deployed end user machines. -------------------------------- A. To Update your Development PC -------------------------------- 1. Run the SatForms_Patch_60101.exe file and unzip the files to a temporary location (the default suggested by the WinZip self extractor is C:\SF6_Inst). There should be four files unzipped to that folder: SatForms_RedistPalmInstaller_050.exe SatForms_RedistMergeModule_050.exe SatForms_OCXDLL_050.exe SatForms_Patch_60101_Readme.txt (this file you are reading) 2. Run the SatForms_RedistPalm_050.exe file and extract the files in that archive to the Redist subfolder where you installed Satellite Forms: {Satellite Forms 6.0 install location}\Redist\Palm\Runtime Installer\Disk\ Be sure to overwrite all files if prompted. This ensures that future redistribution packages you create (following the instructions in the manual Chapter 10: Deploying your Application) will be created using the updated files. 3. Run the SatForms_RedistMergeModule_050.exe file and extract the files in that archive to this subfolder where you installed Satellite Forms: {Satellite Forms 6.0 install location}\Redist\Palm\Merge Modules\ Be sure to overwrite all files if prompted. This ensures that future redistribution packages you create using the redistribution kit merge module will be created using the updated files. 4. Run the SatForms_OCXDLL_050.exe file and extract all of the files in that archive to any temp folder (eg. C:\SF6_Inst\OCX\). (a) Copy the SFrmAx60.OCX file to these folder locations: {Satellite Forms 6.0 install location}\Redist\Palm\CommonFilesFolder\ C:\Program Files\Common Files\Satellite Forms 6.0\Bin\ (b) Copy the SFrmUt60.DLL and SFrmCn60.DLL files to these folder locations: {Satellite Forms 6.0 install location}\Redist\Palm\WinSys\ C:\Windows\System32\ or C:\WinNT\System32\ (c) Register the updated OCX. Open a command prompt window, change to the C:\Program Files\Common Files\Satellite Forms 6.0\Bin\ folder and enter the command "RegSvr32 SFrmAx60.ocx" without the quotes. 5. Shutdown and Restart the development PC so that any DLL files currently in memory will be replaced with the updated ones. 6. Rebuild your application installers that use the SatForms runtime merge module or the redist kit installer from a network folder or CD, so that they are using the updated runtime files. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- B. To Update deployed machines that have already had the SatForms 6.0.1 runtime installed ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Copy all of the files and folders extracted from the SatForms_RedistPalm_050.exe file in step A.2 above to a network folder or a CD for runtime installation on end user PCs. 2. Run the Setup.exe program from the updated runtime files on the end user computer. Select the Remove option to remove the existing runtime installation. 3. Run the Setup.exe program from the updated runtime files on the end user computer a second time. Select the Complete or Custom option to install the updated runtime files. 4. Test your application. ================================================================== IV.
