It seemed to me that the update to the standard WDSC - like from v5 to v6 and i hope to v7 was and is done by ordering a refresh from your business partner of 5722-WDS - normal way to order this kind of thing. Guess we will need to "watch this spot" - maybe Violaine or one of the others knows.
As to an update to AE - probably has to be done through PPA, as it is not orderable as a licensed product.
Just my guesses. Vern At 10:50 AM 3/4/2007, you wrote:
Vern, I don't think you are beating a dead horse here. It IS confusing. Following your link, I clicked on the "Support Downloads" option, which is logical because I want to download the latest WDSc (right?). Well, interestingly enough, upgrading to V 7.0 can only be done through PPA online. But an "all-inclusive update" to 6.0 is available without going to PPA. I am guessing that this is an "upgrade" vs "update" issue. Upgrades, I guess, go through PPA online . Updates can be gotten through the updater or thorough a direct download. In any case, as a business partner with a "Software Access Catalog" account, I can download from there. But what if I didn't have that account? I guess I would have to sign up for PPA (it's free, IIRC) and then get the upgrade there. Things are a little "fuzzy" still.
