installing webphlex for the first time

Once you've received or downloaded the webphlex zip file, just make a suitable directory on disk and unpack the contents of the zip file into it. webphlex does not use the Windows registry, so there's no further installation process required.

It is easiest if you call this directory C:\webphlex and preserve any existing directory structures in the zip file. If you need more help with installing webphlex, please read the detailed installation instructions.

The first time you run the system, it will expect to find the local documentation files in C:\webphlex\webphlex_doc :

but if you've put webphlex or its documentation somewhere else, you can adjust the location later (control panel > system maintenance > system settings).

moving to a new version

If you're already using webphlex and want to move to a new version, you just place the new version on disk, start this new version, then load your data from the old version into the new one using the program 'empty / load database' (control panel > system maintenance > empty database / load this database from another database).

Don't forget that a webphlex database consists of just one file, containing both the software and your data. If you put a new version into the same directory as the old one, don't forget to rename your existing database first! It is anyway good practice to always make a backup copy of any system before installing a new version.

If the process isn't entirely clear to you, please read the detailed installation instructions.
