RE: Client Access automated upgrade

I have set up silent installation, but I agree Adam that uninstalling the
old version would be the problem.

Would you be open to just upgrading the current verion and not uninstalling
the previous? You could set up silent installation for this easily since you
wouldn't be uninstalling.

My CAE help says to go to 'install administration on InfoCenter to learn
about silent installation.
