The database has been updated to work with a more current version of A

[pudn]

A company I support have an Act! Premium 2008 database running on SBS 2003, which is accessed from a couple of desktops in the Office and a number of laptops remotely via VPN. The remote 'people' run a remote database and synchronise. The local people access the database through the network.

The two office machines (running XP Pro) are being replaced by Vista Business machines. And I have a problem ....

Having installed the application and trying to open the database directly via the network from the new machines I get the following error:

"This database has been updated to work witha more current version of ACT! You must update your copy of ACT! in order to log-in to this database. Do yopu want to check for updates now?"

However I get a message in the bottom right of the screen in a yellow box - "You already have the latest version of ACT!"

When I previously came across this error with an office based laptop we changed the database to a remote one. It seems wrong to do this for office based PC's.

Has someone got the answer to this please?

The check for updates doesn't update ACT! 10 because if one system is updated, all systems must be updated.

I'd suggest updating all systems to 10.03.
