Notes |
---|---|---|
Tutorial Demo database Code Examples sample application |
Adaptive Server Anywhere (ASA) 9.0.2 or later |
ASA 9.0.2 is included in the common setup and is installed before PowerBuilder if you select both products. If the setup program cannot detect ASA 9.0.2 or later on your computer and you have not selected ASA in the common setup, you receive a warning if you select PowerBuilder. If you choose to continue, the setup program does not install the tutorial or create registry entries for the demo databases. If you want to use these features later, you will need to reinstall PowerBuilder 10.5. |
