Program Enhancements & Changes-----------
** You may get an Error when you
Copy from Shared to Local after applying this Program Change. This is due to the fact we are starting to
use .NET for programming. If you get an
error you should be OK to Continue on and all other programs will be updated
correctly. The error would occur if you
do not have .Net on your computer. Most
new Versions of Windows has .Net.
Project #3612 – Dot Net Runtime Test
On
the Riata Programs Menu, there is a new option called “Dot Net Runtime Test”. This option is located on the Right Side of
the Riata Programs Menu under ‘Set up Riata’ heading. This will verify if you have .Net setup on
your computer.
When
you click on ‘Dot Net Runtime Test’, if you get a ‘Window Type Error – this
probably means you do not have .Net installed on your computer. Contact you IT Personnel and they can
download .NET Framework 2.0.
If
you do have .Net setup on your computer, once you click on ‘Dot Net Runtime
Test’ a ‘400 Information’ sign-on Screen will be displayed. Enter your AS/400 User name and Password and
click on ‘Log In’. Then the following
confirmation message will be displayed.

If
you get an error after you sign-on to the 400 and do not receive the above

download the needed Service Pack or Contact CTI and we can assist you in
identifying what Service Pack you need and how to install.
