Upgrading DataSlave to Version 2.1

Upgrading from 2.0 to 2.1

Make a backup copy of your licence file and run the setup for 2.1.

There is no change required to maps, but please note that the Script objects are now called ActiveX Scripts

Upgrading from 1.x to 2.1

When you install version 2.1 your installation will upgrade and DataSlave 1.x will no longer be available. You will also need a new licence file for 2.1. We suggest you make sure you have this available before you install version 2.1.

Please see the prices for upgrading. If you purchased DataSlave during or after September 2006 we offer a no-charge upgrade. Please contact support if you qualify for this free upgrade.

Upgrading maps

If you have maps developed in version 1.x of DataSlave you can open them from version 2.1. You will get a warning and the Export functions on the map will revert to Trial mode.

Functions in the Trial mode are restricted to only execute 50 rows. To change a function out of trial mode highlight the function and either use the right-click context menu or the Functions menu.

Validate Script functions will need to be modified. Open each validate and change the inputs from Value to Value1. This is made necessary as the Validate Script object now supports multiple inputs.

Lookup functions need to be deleted and re-entered and some other Validate and Transform functions may need to be re-entered as well.

Test your map carefully and when you have finished save the map.
