Frequently Asked Questions: Installation
Q. How do I install a single user Outcomes Assessment
2012?
A. DO NOT
INSTALL the .NET file unless
prompted to do so. For Win7 and Vista, if your
computer up to date with Window Updates, then you should never get the
.Net prompt as the Windows update updates .Net. If you get this
message with Win7 or Vista, you should either update your computer
and/or run the .Net setup file. If a Win7/Vista “User” tries to
intall the program, the user is prompted for an Admin password before
you can
proceed. Same when you try to run OA.
After
Outcomes Assessment 2012 is installed you will need to register your
software by emailing the software code and year (2012) to Kate@frontofficellc.com or
call 816-396-0347.
FOR HIPPA SECURITY:
“For Vista/Win7, the Setup program
now requires admin rights to even start the installation. If a
Vista/Win7
“user” tries to run setup, they are prompted for the password of an
Administrator. With an admin password, the program installs
correctly and everything works except that the setup program does NOT
create
the desktop user shortcut nor are there windows startup menu items. To
use the program the “User” must navigate to the “c:\Outcomes Assessment
2010”
folder and launch Assessment2010.exe. Then as a user, they are prompted
every
time for the admin password to execute the program. If they enter it
then
OA 2010 works perfectly. “
Q. How do I install Outcomes Assessment 2012
on a networked computer?
A. For a new multi-user
installation
the PatientData2011.mdb file should be put in a shared network
location.
You would also normally create mapped drives on each computer that allow
access
to the shared network location. File read/write permissions must
be
granted to each user.
1) On the first computer on
which OA
is to be installed, do a "New"
installation, specifying the
shared
network location as the data location. Normally, the program should
still be
installed on the local computer. Launch the program and make sure it
runs
correctly.
2) On all other
computers, do an "Add User" installation, installing the program on
the local computer. When the program is first launched on that computer
it will prompt for the location of the data files. Point to the shared
network location.
