ODBC Driver Installation and Configuration
Download and install http://www.pangaea.de/curator/files/Windows/install_pangaea_freetds.exe. The initial installation of the driver must be done with administrator rights (Warning: Windows Vista and Windows 7 users must download the file to harddisk and start it by right-click with "Run as Administrator"). After that each user working with 4D Client has to run pangaea_freetds.exe again, to setup the data sources (DSN). The installation program will remove/overwrite all old "AWI" data sources if available. If you had OpenLink as ODBC driver for 4D/PANGAEA installed before, please uninstall it now with "Control-Panel -> Software"!

4D Client Installation

 * Uninstall possible older installations of 4D Client.
 * Download and start http://www.pangaea.de/curator/files/Windows/4D_v11_SQL_Release_4_SetUp.exe.
 * Use "Custom installation" and only install the "4D" base package, nothing else!

ODBC Driver Installation and Configuration
