Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Getting Started:
Installation and Configuration

Installation overview

After you have addressed all the topics presented in the "Tasks overview" section, you are prepared to perform the OpenEdge installation in a Windows platform.

Note: Before you install any OpenEdge products in Windows 2000, Windows 2003, or Windows XP Professional system, check the directory C:\Winnt\system32 or C:\Windows\system32 to see whether any of the .dll or .ocx files have the read-only bit set. If any .dll or .ocx files in this directory are read-only, you must reset them before installing OpenEdge. If you try to install OpenEdge with one or more related .dll or .ocx files set to read-only, OpenEdge will generate a dialog box to inform you that you must reset the .dll bit or .ocx bit and reinstall OpenEdge.
