Hi David, 

My gut feeling is that you installed the 64 bits version of VAST? Then that should be in c:\Program Files\Instantiations\VA Smalltalk\9XXXX

Could that be the reason?

Best,

Mariano. I am very pleased about the release, however I am having some difficulty understanding what has happened with the installation. I am getting old so my brain ain't as quick as it used to be but:

I have 9.1, 9.2 and now 9.2.1 installed on my laptop. I am trying to put the abtpay dll away so I went to my  Program Files (x86) directory then VA Smalltalk - then expecting to see the normal list of folders and dlls, all I have is directory called Documentation. Now I cannot find the dlls for any of the installations. However - everything works!

Tell me I am going stupid and everything is...   Please?

OK so another question. I have all the code I have ever written back to 1996 in my 9.2 config file. It is a real pain going through the complete list picking out my code and importing each one. I have just tried ConfigMaps - Names - Import - All Most Recent Versions . This seems to import everything including my old code but - is that something \I should be doing because it loads something of everything. Does this cause conflicts with the current 9.2.1 install? Should I do this or should I go back to manually importing each and every config map?

Likewise, I can't see it but is there an easy way to import all of my applications that aren't in config maps?

I am very much a front end programmer so I could do with some ideas about this stuff.

You can use the importer.exe tool from ANY VAST installation. Example:

"importer.exe" "-z.target=envy::/Users/mariano/Trabajo/Instantiations/Common/Development/Managers/MainManager91.dat" "-z.source=c:\ProgramData\Instantiations\VA Smalltalk\9.2\manager\mgr92.dat"

It simply receives a source and a target manager. Each manager could be either a local directory or a EMSRV server.

That will import all maps/apps etc from source to target. 

For more details see the documentation: <a href="https://www.instantiations.com/docs/921/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm#href=mi/migtl010.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmousedown="this.href=&#39;https://www.google.com/url?q\x3dhttps%3A%2F%2Fwww.instantiations.com%2Fdocs%2F921%2Fwwhelp%2Fwwhimpl%2Fjs%2Fhtml%2Fwwhelp.htm%23href%3Dmi%2Fmigtl010.html\x26sa\x3dD\x26sntz\x3d1\x26usg\x3dAFQjCNGYwF1K9cLftRbWYUuNGIMNlx6wRw&#39;;return true;" onclick="this.href=&#39;https://www.google.com/url?q\x3dhttps%3A%2F%2Fwww.instantiations.com%2Fdocs%2F921%2Fwwhelp%2Fwwhimpl%2Fjs%2Fhtml%2Fwwhelp.htm%23href%3Dmi%2Fmigtl010.html\x26sa\x3dD\x26sntz\x3d1\x26usg\x3dAFQjCNGYwF1K9cLftRbWYUuNGIMNlx6wRw&#39;;return true;">https://www.instantiations.com/docs/921/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm#href=mi/migtl010.html
