Running and messages
When the program starts up, it first checks the default path of AMT.GDB
C:\Program files\Datatex\Amethyst\Data\Amt.gdb and will warn you if the
database was not found. You can click on the 'open folder' button to choose
a database in another location.
Click on the 'Upgrade' button to start the upgrade. There will be 2 confirmations
to make sure you want to continue. The upgrade may take some time to run,
depending on the speed of the server and the size of the database.
If the database is already up-to-date, you will get a message
The database has already been upgraded to the current version.
