 Introducing PTWin32 |
The
upgrade program that moves your PTWin version 2.x data into your PTWin32
installation does not know about any custom files you may have created. For
example, if you have created custom reports in the Ad
Hoc report writer or Paradox then
those files will need to be manually copied to your PTWin32 environment (into
the PTWin32\reports sub-directory). Most reports written to work with version
2 should work with PTWin32, but there have been some changes to the tables that
may require an edit to your old report. That
was what to keep, now for what to change. PTWin32
contains a new User password encryption scheme that differs from PTWin version
2.x. We bring your version 2 passwords into PTWin32, but they are not encrypted
as part of the upgrade. This
would be okay if only a system administrator could see the passwords, but given
the new security system any user with access to Reports
can print out the information. If
you have not encrypted your version 2 passwords to the PTWin32 format you will
find that your User List window has an
encryption button that leads you through the process. If the button is not there
then your passwords are already encrypted.
