InfoMaker Components

This topic describes how to install InfoMaker, an easy-to-use tool for creating applications that query and report on databases.

The common setup program installs InfoMaker in default drives and directories unless you specify otherwise. If a directory you specify does not exist, setup creates it.

Note

If InfoMaker 2017 or 2017 R2 is installed, you can directly upgrade it to 2017 R3 by running the setup program. All of your current settings and user preferences will be preserved during the upgrade.
