1.
Install Rx Medi-TrendSM on all PC's you wish to use and access Rx
Medi-TrendSM data.
Factors to consider when installing Rx Medi-TrendSM:
1. The single downloadable installation file contains all of the necessary files to install the Palm Software, and both Access 97/2000 versions of Rx
Medi-TrendSM. The end-user should see the following prompt after starting the installation program.
It is imperative that the proper files/features are selected for installation. There are three basic features:
1. Palm OS®
Software
- Only select one (1) version. The Access version selected should match the version of Rx
Medi-TrendSM.
2. Rx
Medi-TrendSM for Access 2000
- The Client Application should always be installed (select 2000) unless you wish to install only the back-end database on a network server.
- However, the back-end database should not be installed more than once on a stand-alone PC.(e.g., if you are a current user of Rx
Medi-TrendSM DO NOT install this feature. Doing so will DELETE ALL OF YOUR DATA.)
3. Rx
Medi-TrendSM for Access 97
- The Client Application should always be installed (select 97) unless you wish to install only the back-end database on a network server.
- However, the back-end database should not be installed more than once on a stand-alone PC (e.g., if you are a current user of Rx
Medi-TrendSM DO NOT install this feature. Doing so will DELETE ALL OF YOUR DATA.)
To select/deselect a feature, left-click on the item and the following option box will appear. To deselect a feature, select "This feature will not be available."
Note: When the installation program starts, EVERY FEATURE IS SLATED TO BE INSTALLED. YOU MUST
DESELECT NON-NECESSARY FEATURES.
The screen shot below is an example setup for a user running MS Access 97, who is a current user of Rx
Medi-TrendSM wishing to upgrade and install the Palm OS® feature.
Networking Procedures

If you are a new user, you may select and move the data file from any of the computers from which the back-end database was installed.
