General Questions


For general functionality-related questions, see the How-To Questions section of the manual.

Q. Do I have to Uninstall version 1?

A. You do not have to uninstall the ASP Report Wizard version 1.
We have named this new version release ReportWizard2 because we want it to be able to co-exist with version 1 on the same server
The reports.xml file for version 1 is different. We are still working on the free conversion utility
