Re: Dictionary downloads

I just tried to update my standalone copy of Rec6 and discovered that the dictionary download 0000000H.zip (on the Rec6 website) is incomplete. The zip file contains an mdb file but no sql script.

I have thus been unable to complete the upgrade

Re: Dictionary downloads

Some of the upgrades are mdb files and some are sql scripts - this should still run fine. I ran several together (including H) and it all worked fine. it is possible that you need to unzip the sql files int he script folder but leave the mdb ones zipped. Hope that makes sense - if in doubt run them separately and do not unzip H.

Cheers,
Lynn

Re: Dictionary downloads

Thanks Lynn, but I followed the instructions and recieved a message that the update couldn't continue as there was no sql script for H.

I will try again later when I have my laptop handy

Re: Dictionary downloads

Did you get this to work - I anm having problems with Upgrade H as well.  Have attempted to upgrade by leaving the file zipped but now getting error message 'unable to create file'.  Then tried to update with Upgrade I and am getting the same error message.
