Topic: Dictionary Upgrade - 00000056

Upgrade 00000056  is now available from http://www.recorder6.info/page47.html   This update must be  be run from within Recorder 6 and requires version 6.29 or above.  A licence key to access these updates see https://forums.nbn.org.uk/viewtopic.php?id=7472.

You should  backup your R6 DB before the update just in case of any major issues.

If you have run the new upgrade before and know how it works then you can go directly to the files at  http://www.recorder6.info/page50.html

It brings Recorder 6 into line with the UKSI at 6 June 2025. It includes a recent major update from the BSBI.

Please run report DIct 2 and check that the figures are in line with those accesed by clicking on  additional information.  Please report here any differences.

I suggest that you do not use the option at the end of the process to update the four Indexes but do this as a separate process on each index. See R6 Tools/Database  Tools.

Re: Dictionary Upgrade - 00000056

Hi Mike,

Thanks very much.  As licences for 2025-26 cannot currently be purchased (https://nbn.org.uk/tools-and-resources/recorder6/), would we be able to use the 2024-25 licence key?

Best wishes,
Lindsay

As the new licence renewal system is not yet in place  the key for both this and the previous year will work for the moment.

Re: Dictionary Upgrade - 00000056

I couldn't get the link to the dictionary download to work on recorder6.info so copied the url (https://www.recorder6.info/00000056.zip) into the adress bar and that worked fine. Just thought I'd post in case anyone else has the same issue (maybe it's just my browser?).
