Did you have to uninstall 7.0.01 Patch 001 first? Or was it installed on top of patch 1?
The documentation is not really clear... I am reading the 'Patch002_UserTool_TechBulletin(ReadMe).pdf' file and it states: "BMC Software is alerting users of BMC Remedy User version 7.0.01 to the availability of a patch that provides fixes for various known issues. If you have any questions about the problem or the patch, contact BMC Software Customer Support at 800 537 1813 (United States or Canada) or call your local support center." Does this mean that prior to installing patch 2 you have to contact your support company to get the patch for patch 1? If so, then I wonder why it wasn't simply included in the patch 2 folder on BMC's ftp site. Further in the pdf, it states: "Use the normal installation procedure for BMC Remedy User as described in the BMC Remedy Action Request System 7.0 Installing guide." However, from page 123 of that Installing guide: "Before you perform an overwrite installation of BMC Remedy User, uninstall the existing version." If you follow these steps - uninstalling the User Tool first - you will trash your computer (bug SW00257321) and "the only way to recover is to reload the operating system." If I recall correctly, David Easter previously recommended to install the User Tool patch 2 version on top of the patch 1 version (without uninstalling patch 1 first) to avoid the problem. Yet, the readme doc does not state this. Does anyone know the correct installation procedure to install User Tool 7.0.01 patch 2 on a computer that already has User Tool patch 1 (with CR redistributable files, Office 2003, and Visual Studio installed)?
