NOTE: If you are installing HPDM on Vista and you are logged on as a non-administrator,

you need to install the files in a non-default location (for example, “C:\user\<your logon

name>\HP Database Manager.” Vista does not allow non-administrators to install files into

the “C:\Program Files” folder.
