INSTALLING SOFTWARE
This section discusses the way in which _EXPRESS Data Manager_ software is distributed.
The _EXPRESS Data Manager_ accept the white space character as delimiter between file names in "file name" and "directory name" arguments. Hence, to avoid confusion and possible malfunctions, we recommend avoiding using file and directory names containing the white space character as parameters to _EDMsupervisor_ commands or as arguments to _EDMinterface_ operations.
Especially the EDM_HOME configuration parameter should not contain any white space character. The default location is C:\edm.
Setup
Windows
The _EXPRESS Data Manager_ for Windows version is supplied in _InstallShield_ file format. To install the software, simply follow the standard Windows application installation procedure.
Figure 1 Install shield wizard
Note: the uninstall shield removes the contents of folder "%EDM_HOME%", but not the folder it self. Please remove this old folder also.
Windows InstallShieldTM set-up
Upon completion of the _InstallShield_ execution, a directory structure in the form shown below is created.
