Overview
To roll out an OpenInsight 9.0.0 application to a workstation requires that several libraries and controls be registered by a administratrive user. Some of the components will automatically install upon first use if the local user has workstation administrator access. Since many organizations don't give users local administrator rights to the workstation this document is designed to help you identify the components that need to be installed or setup in advance.

For the purpose of this article assume users do not have administrator access and the files will need to be setup by script or hand. This article coveres workstations using Windows 2000 and later. Some components may already be installed as part of the Windows Update process.

Installation Prerequisites

• Windows Installer 3.1 - Required component for the .NET Framework (see below)
• .NET Framework - Used by OIPI.NET for printing

OpenInsight Setup
Files here can be found in the root of your OpenInsight 9.0 program folder. These files must be installed or registered by an administrator. Use the Windows program regsvr32 to register .OCX files. You may automate this process with the use of a administrator logon script.

• OIPINET\OIPISetup3.3.msi - The printing component OpenInsight
• RevDotNetSetup.msi - Library to utilize .NET controls in OpenInsight
• rvcmdctl.ocx - Library used by Character to Open Insight (CTO)
• scivbx.ocx - Used by the System Editor ++ to display opened files

Tip: Windows Vista User Account Control (UAC) requires that you use "Run As Administrator" when installing or starting command prompts.

Once the files are propertly setup and registered you can log in as the limited user and launch the OpenInsight program shortcut.

This article applies only to OpenInsight 9.0.0. Newer version starting at 9.0.1 and higher will have a client installation package included with OpenInsight. The client installation package will registered required controls and components.
