I'm actually loving this update. Things have been a bit quiet and this update gave me 6 hours work in a tiny 3 GP practice.
My thanks go to HCN for their unending support of techies in small businesses all over Australia.

I've got some theories for trying again and am reasonably hopeful of succeeding. Having seen the upgrade process in detail, however, I have a great deal of sympathy for HCN in trying to support this upgrade across a range of Microsoft servers and operating systems. There are just too many variables to make it seamless for everyone (sor perhaps even anyone). David P.S. I could have added how much simpler things are in the linux world, but I won't. I've been back from holidays for all of a day and have already seen 2 / 4 upgrades fail. HCN tech support is so swamped that I had trouble getting in the queue today (although to be fair I also had to call Optus and they were much worse). It's hard to install 15 or so programmes on Windows in a scripted fashion. One site couldn't install Acrobat but I didn't get any useful debug until I tried the Acrobat installer "manually", just a message to call HCN support! It's a huge upgrade and the end result appears to be an improvement in speed and probably functionality. Still, it's a damn shame we can't just "apt-get install MDW3". Peter.
