Section I: General Information
===============================

System Requirements
-------------------

Windows
- 486 PC or higher
- 16 MB RAM (24 recommended)
- 45 MB hard drive space, depending on configuration
- CD ROM drive
- VGA monitor
- Windows 95 or Windows NT 3.51 or higher for development
- Windows 95, Windows NT, or Window 3.x for deployment

Connecting to DB2
-----------------
We now include an Intersolv driver for connecting to DB2. This is available on all
platforms. Detailed information is available in Online Help.

Database Information
--------------------
SQLAnywhere 5.5.04 is installed for Windows 32-bit platforms.

Oracle 8 Driver - InfoMaker 6.0 has an option to install the Oracle 8 native
database interface. For further information, see online help.

Fewer DLLs /Libraries

---------------------
There are fewer DLLs (libraries on non-Wintel platforms) than there used to be for
InfoMaker. Functionality has been combined, and you can now deploy an application
with as few as 1 DLL (PBVM60.DLL), but realistically, you'll probably use three ...
PBVM60.DLL, PBDWE60.DLL (for DataWindow functionality) and one DLL for whichever
database you are using.

Installing on NT4.0
-------------------
You must have Administrator privileges to fully install this product on NT 4.0.
Internet Explorer 4.0
---------------------
At the time PB 6.0 was released, Microsoft IE 4.0 had just been released and some
compatibility issues with PowerBuilder 6.0 were identified, but it was too late to
correct them. Those issues have been resolved in PB 6.5.

ODBC Updates
------------
If you download Microsoft's updated ODBC files (ODBC version 3.50.3308) for use
with PowerBuilder or InfoMaker, please be aware that they have not been fully
tested with our products, and results may be unpredictable.

Online Books
------------
Online Books are now available over the web! The URL for the DynaWeb version of
the PowerBuilder 6.0 and InfoMaker 6.0 online books is: http://calas.sybase.com/
This URL is also available under the PowerBuilder and InfoMaker Help menus.

OLE Synchronization DLLs

------------------------
Some customers have been experiencing OLE problems due to mis-matched OLE DLLs.
OLE32.DLL must be dated 1/26/97 - if you have an older version, you will experience
problems. To get the update, you may have to reinstall the OS and upgrade with
appropriate MS OS service packs. Also the DLL rpcrt4.dll must be kept in sync with
ole32.dll.

Silent Install
--------------
On the Windows platform, you can create a "silent" install for InfoMaker - one
which can be set up and run without user intervention. This is handy for system
administrators. See the documentation (Deploying your Application in Application
Techniques) for further information.
