Required software |
Notes |
|---|---|---|

Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2005 or another tool that supports the Microsoft .NET Framework Version 2.0 |
You must shut down Visual Studio before running the setup program. If Visual Studio .NET 2005 is installed before DataWindow .NET, DataWindow .NET controls are added to the Toolbox. If you install Visual Studio after installing DataWindow .NET, you can use the DWToolBoxReg tool to add them later. Microsoft .NET Framework Version 2.0 is required for DataWindow .NET deployment. |

Adaptive Server Anywhere (ASA) 9.0.2 or later Code Examples option in DataWindow Designer setup program |
ASA 9.0.2 is included in the common setup and is installed before DataWindow .NET if you select both products. If the setup program cannot detect ASA 9.0.2 or later on your computer and you have not selected ASA in the common setup, you receive a warning if you select DataWindow Designer. If you choose to continue, the setup program does not install the sample DataWindow object library and demo database or create registry entries for the demo database. If you want to use these features later, you must install ASA and reinstall DataWindow Designer. The Code Examples option is installed by default if ASA 9.0.2 is detected on your computer. |
