Installer (10.1 MB; July 2011) for Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7. This installer will put the latest update of Abacus on your computer. This installer supersedes all previous releases, and is suitable for both new installations and upgrades. It will not overwrite an existing database. It contains the latest versions of the help files and other documents. If a v1.2 database exists on your system, this installer will move it into the correct location for this installation.

If necessary, this installation updates the Jet Database Engine to Jet 4.0 Service Pack 8. Microsoft Help and Support Article ID: 239114 refers.
