If you are upgrading on an existing machine then follow the following steps:

  1. Install the software into the same directory as the old software (if this is on the local hard-drive then this will likely to be "c:\ergosys\CDM 2007range" or "c:\program files\CDM 2007range" .  You will still be able to use your previous version of the CDM 2007 Range.

  2. Run the program and open any old *.ste files. Save them under a new name if you still wish to edit them with you old version of the CDM 2007 Range of software.

  1. Install the software into a shared folder on the network.

  2. Repeat this process for each machine on the network (ensuring you install the software onto the same location).
