That is a good question!  I am not totally sure, that is why I am hoping
some people can test it.  

>From what I understand (translation - Grain of salt) if you already have
a different version of Perl installed, you may end up with two different
versions.  However if you did a standard ActivePerl install it *should*
just upgrade what you have.  

Likewise if you have installed ASSP manually already, and during install
supply a different install path you will end up with two different ASSP
directories.  However it is *my understanding* that if you have never
installed ASSP on that windows machine it should be straight forward.
If you installed with the installer the first time it *should* work to
upgrade, and even if you manually installed, as long as you have a
standard install of ActivePerl, and specify the same install path it
*should not* give you any problems.  

***Warning***  This is a beta installer at best!  Much more testing
needs to be done before you try this on a production machine and as
always... ***Backup your ASSP before using*** ***Backup your ASSP before
using*** 

Thanks Micheal for pointing out the danger inherent in beta software I
should have maybe stressed that warning a little more adamantly in my
last post.  

Btw - the Win32 installer will not be made available on the ASSP
sourceforge site without a lot more testing being doe first.
