[comp.databases] Accell 1.2 vs 1.3 weirdness

dan@hrc.UUCP (Dan Troxel VP) (08/02/88)

I am currently running Accell 1.3 over Unify 4.0 . Is the following 
supposed to happen:
	
	Going into the Accell menu, (Unify side of it), if I had
	constructed the database under 1.2, the menu title on top
	of the page reads "Accell 1.2". If I create a new database
	under 1.3, it reads "Accell 1.3". The 1.2 version has been
	reconstructed to run under 1.3 .

Is this supposed to occur? If so, is there a reason? Will the 1.2 type, be
different in any way compared to the 1.3 type???

Go to the "Modify System Parameters & Security" screen (called 'parmnt',
just type that at the SELECTION: prompt).  On this screen is a SYSTEM
HEADING field that can be modified.  Change it from "Accell Release 1.2" to
"Accell Release 1.3", or whatever you would like it to say.

Yes, all is ok.

In fact, what actually happens is that Unify updated the database
from accell 1.2 to accell 1.3, but it didn't change the system header,
as perhaps you already had.  This header is on the screen parmnt.
You can change it yourself to anything you want.
