Hello Colin,



In order to get this CD-ROM for 2.5.1 I called Deanna Newell at Pitsco.
She was on vacation and they transferred me to some very friendly tech
support people. To make a long story short, I pointed out all the
patches that need to be applied to 2.5 and they freely sent me 2.5.1.
Good people there.



Here is what worked for me on the upgrade process:



Number 1.)  Robolab 2.5 basic release



Number 2.)  The CD-ROM 2.5.1 from Pitsco overlaying the 2.5 release



Number 3.)  Service Pack 1 applied.  My version is now 2.5.2

  The SP.1 text note that is installed as part of Service Pack 1 says,



  " You have successfully installed ROBOLAB Service Pack 1.0.

  Your RL 2.5.1 program should now be updated to 2.5.2."



  This means to me that SP1 must be applied to version 2.5.1.



Good Luck,



Bill

I have Robolab 2.5.0 and I tried to install SP1. The install says that
2.5.1

is required. It then searches for 2.5.1 on your disk. In my case it said

2.5.1 found and updated the software. Robolab now no longer works! This

seems to suggest that you cannot apply SP1 to 2.5.0. Is there a service

update to update 2.5.0 to 2.5.1 or is the only way to get a new disk
from DACTA?

Hello Miles and all,



As I said this is what worked for me. Maybe you can apply SP1 to the

base release of 2.5. I do not know.
