Overview of the NPL Universal Upgrade

The NPL Universal Upgrade program performs the following tasks depending on the options selected:

• Verifies that NPL security has been recalled to the NPL Gold Key

• Prompts for an upgrade registration code supplied by Niakwa

• Optionally allows you to display the information required to obtain a registration code

• Once the registration code is verified, upgrades the license on the Gold Key

• Installs the new NPL security from the Gold Key Diskette to the NPL drive:\directory containing the RunTime files

• Prompts the user to record appropriate information on the NPL RunTime Gold Key Diskette label for future reference

To insure the best results when running a Universal Upgrade, always verify that the NIAKWA_RUNTIME environment variable is set to your target RunTime upgrade directory.
