Dan,
Sorry for not responding earlier. We jumped from 5.0 to 6.0 on a
clean server. I installed it so that the Progress installation was
on the same share as the Mfgsys portion.
My server looks like this v:\ =Epicor on VntgServer
I have a path v:\mfgsys60 with all of the Vantage files.
I have a path v:\prgs91d with all of the Progress files.
I seem to remember an option in the instructions where you could use
the existing 5.2 installation of Progress or install it on the same
share. Since I was never using 5.2 I chose to set it up like this.
