This is UPGRADE.TXT for the July 7, 1995, version of CaseKeeper.

This readme file is for users who are upgrading from previous versions of CaseKeeper.  If you have not used or are not using CaseKeeper currently, you do not need to read the information in this file in order to install CaseKeeper successfully.

Instructions for upgraders:
   1.  If you haven't already dones so, you will need to add four new fields to tables in your CSKPRDAT.MDB file.  Load Microsoft Access 2.x, select Open Database from the File menu, and open your CaseKeeper DATA file (probably CSKPRDAT.MDB).  Select each of the tables named below in A through D in the database window, and click on the Design button.

            A.  To tClients table, add the field "CSSN" as a Text data type.  Number of characters is 11.
            B.  To tClients table, add the field "CDOB" as a Date/Time data type.
            C.  To tCases table, add the field "OriginAttyID" as a Text data type.  Number of characters is 4.
            D.  To tSlips table, add the field "Attorney" as a Text data type.  Number of characters is 4.

  2.  Select Import... from the File menu.  Datasource = Microsoft Access.  In the Select Database dialog box, select the UPGRADE.MDB that is included with the CSKPR.ZIP archive.  In the Import Objects dialog box, select the table "tContacts" for import.  (Structure only.) Click the Import button, then Close.

  3.  Select Relationships from the Edit menu.  You'll see a Layout of the relationships of the tables in your CaseKeeper data file.  Select Add Table... from the Relationships menu.  Select "tContacts" from the dialog box. Click the Add button, then Close.

   Now, find the table "tCases" in the Layout. Click on the CaseID field in that box, and DRAG it down on top the CaseID field in the "tContacts" box. (Do NOT drag from the "tContacts" table to "tCases.") Release the mouse, and the Relationships dialog box will open.  Click on the Enforce Referential Integrity check box, then click on the two Cascade... check boxes underneath that.  Click the Create button.  Close and save the changes to your Layout.  Close your data file.
