Thanks for the detailed explanation! Running FDINST manually worked fine.
One final question - after doing this:
CD D:\DEVEL
FDINST INSTALL OW.ZIP
I found that the C:\DEVEL\OW\OWSETENV.BAT had lines like this:
SET INCLUDE=d:\mateusz\devel\ow19\BINW;%INCLUDE%
All of the SET lines referenced d:\mateusz\devel\ow19. Of course, that
path doesn't exist so the file sets variables that don't work.
Shouldn't they reference c:\devel\ow, or am I misinterpreting something?
Sorry for the newbie Qs :-)
