User Manual of Report Designer Smart Update

1. Introduction
With previous Cabinet File download, it is required to improve two problems. Firstly, when it
takes a long time to download, your system seems not to be operated properly. Secondly,
every file should be downloaded through Cab file, even in case updating one file. Report
Designer Smart Update has neither problem. But, in Report Designer Smart Update, only each
of updated files is compressed/ transmitted according to a file version in Report Designer OCX
Viewer, and also shows downloading status precisely.

4. Cautions
After 1,0,0,9 version, file name supplies not only the full path that includes http but also
relative path that is based on ini file path. In case of using a relative path, the relative
path is start with ., In case of a file is located at the same location as a basic path, it is
an exception.
Both of .and , are supplied as separator of a file version, but never use both of them
together.
In case own version does not exist (such as *.ini, *.tlb and etc.), it can not come at the
first place of download list.
As installation is executed by a list of file index, pay attention to the order of files. In
addition, you had better enter RD OCX Viewer file in the bottom of the list.
