Hi Pete

Did you order the upgrade via IBMs 'My entitled Software' -> 'Software Updates' ?

I had ordered the DVD and the activation kit came on a separate CD. ESS
still has the download for RDi 7.5 and the activation kit but even
though we are now licensed for RDp ESS shows nothing about it.

Seems the Brazilian office hasn't sorted out the whole RDp vs RDi
issue. Sigh. IBM *really* needs to get a handle on the whole license
key/downloads/entitlement operation. It has *never* been correct and we
always have to go through the hassle of calling to get things ordered
and then ESS still isn't correct.

That is my experience. Calling is the only way to get things done
(great 21st century approach, no?)

I have upgraded from RDP 7.5 to 7.6. Where I had a permanent key for
RPG/Cobol, I now have a trial key. Anyone else experienced this?

I checked the activation center for a new kit but it only shows 7.5.

Thanks.
