Quality Control-Concrete VERSION 2 UPDATES

Latest QC-Concrete Version 2 Update: Version: 2.3.188 posted 1/15/2024

NOTE: DATABASE STRUCTURE CHANGE

Version 2.2.235 involves a database update. If your current version is older than that please back up your entire QC-Concrete folder in addition to the database before updating. A suggested way to do this is at the bottom of this page..


Update Directions:

Before downloading, check the version of QC-Concrete you are using, in Help, About QC-Concrete. If it is a higher or equal version number, you're in good shape, don't download! Before running this update, take the precaution to back up your CQC-CP.MDB database file. Then do the following:

  1. Click on the DOWNLOAD link below, and save the file in your QC-Concrete folder or your desktop, do not change the name, it must be QCCupdate.exe.
  2. If you have not already done so, take the precaution to back up your database.
  3. Make sure there are no users logged in to QC-Concrete. Check Administrator Tools to be sure.
  4. EXIT QC-CONCRETE
  5. Navigate to your QC-Concrete program folder or desktop and run UPDATE.
  6. It will ask you to "Choose Destination Location", again, select the QC-Concrete folder. If you don't know where you QC-Concrete program folder is check Help-About. The folder is listed as the "Path".
  7. If the "Install Screen Layouts" dialog appears, continue past it.
  8. Click on "Finish" when the "Installation Complete" dialog is displayed.
  9. Important: Repeat this on all PC's which have a copy of the program installed before running it again on any of them.

The first time you run QC-Concrete after updating, a database structure modification may automatically be performed. If that occurs, restart QC-Concrete again as instructed.
