1 Auto Upgrade:
For those users with version 2.22.00 or later, open 'Housekeeping | Config Options | Company' and select 'Download Update'. A download window will open and the program will automatically download the latest upgrade file from the ftp site. This download window can be closed when complete or will auto close five seconds after completion. Later versions will offer to auto start the 'Setup.exe'.
If the program does not try to auto start the upgrade, exit and manually run *:\Data\Setams\Setup.exe (where ‘*’ is the data drive).
