AWB Scope Calculations - Download Notes

AWB Scope Calculations - no nag screens, no adverts, no payment - it's just free

This is a Microsoft .Net 3.5 (via Visual Studio 2008) application that uses SQL Server Compact as a back end database.

Why I am telling you this? Well, it means that the installer not only contains the application itself but references to  the Microsoft installers for the .Net 3.5 framework and SQL Server Compact runtime.

I have not used any other third party products in this application.

I believe that it's nice to know what you are getting with an application hence this explanation.

All three components (AWB Scope Calculations, .Net Framework 3.5 and SQL Server Compact) will all appear in the Windows Control Panel -> Add Remove Programs facility so nothing will get installed that you cannot remove at a later date if you so wish.
INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS
Download the AWB Scope Calculations installer by using the download button on the download page. This downloads a self extracting zip file called AWBScopeCalculations100.exe.
 
Save AWBScopeCalculations100.exe to a folder of your choice and execute the program. You will be presented with the following screen shown in Fig. 1 below..

Just follow the on screen instructions to extract the setup files to a location of your choice. Once the extraction is completed go to the location you selected - one of the files there will be setup.exe.

Execute setup.exe.

If you do not have Net 3.5 framework already on your PC then you will presented with the following screen shown in Fig. 2 below. Press the 'Accept' button.

The .Net framework and SQL Server compact will then install presenting the following progress screens (Figs. 4 and 5). This will take a couple of minutes for the .net framework and a matter of seconds for SQL Server Compact.
