Immediately after Installation

We recommend allocating a special Windows "FormTrap User account" for the Spooler. Reasons for this are here Notes on writing to network drives.

Upgrade from Version 6.3 or earlier:
Install software, do not start the FormTrap Server, see Version Upgrade. You will need to rebuild the form set in FTDesign.

Upgrade from Version 6.4:
Install software, do not start the FormTrap Server, see Version Upgrade. Data folders need not be rebuilt.

Move existing Version 7 to a new Server:
Install software, move the entire %fthome% folder to the same location on the new server.

Update to number of printers or other features:
We send you a .zip file that contains an update to your settings. Stop the "FormTrap Service". Use Settings Merger (FormTrap group of programs) to add the new feature(s) and restart the service. Check the addition(s) you ordered is installed.
