This section guides you through the upgrading of an existing installation to a newer version of the software.

The process is largely automatic and experienced users will have no difficulty performing it even if they have not read this guide.

There are two stages to the process. Stage 1 is loading the new software onto your computer. This will take  only a few minutes. Stage 2 is upgrading your data to accommodate the changes in the new version. How long this takes will depend on the size of your database and the number of changes involved. For large systems, this can take several hours. It is an unattended operation, so once it's started you can leave it to it.

IMPORTANT: You must have administrator privileges within Windows™ to upgrade your system. Make sure you are logged-in to Windows as a user that has administrator privileges.
