| | G'day You can find the Strataframe Version a few ways that I can think of: 1. In Visual Studio, from the "Strataframe" menu select "Version..." 2. From the start menu select "Strataframe", "Documentation", "Strataframe Help" and the topic it opens to shows the version number. 3. You could look in the GAC to see the versions of the Strataframe assemblies. Hope this helps Peter |

| Thanks for the help Peter! I'll check and see what I get. I *think* the last version I installed was 1.6.? and then after that I remember downloading some dlls from the forums because there were a few bugs... I read a few posts that said they didnt update the version numbers every time they recompiled.
The reason I'm asking is because I thought my boss and I were running the same version until I gave him one of my projects and when he tried to open it he got a plethora of errors. So now we're confused... :-D
I did notice however that they released 1.6.5 in March... so we'll be making the move to that. |

| | They tend not to change the assembly versions, so things don't break. However, as of 1.6.5 I believe, they now use the file version to indicate what version you really are on. Use the StrataFrame|version menu in VS. |

| | Both Greg and Peter are correct. We have left the assemly version alone as it seems to alleviate a few other issues that creep up when we release new versions. However, determining the version was also an issue. So we update the file version and leave the assembly version alone. Peter and Greg gave you good instructions on how to determine that. The GAC will show 1.6.0.0 but the file version will give you the actual version that you are on. |

| Another quick question... similar in nature  ... when installing 1.6.5 can I skip the database deployment phase?
If the answer is no does that mean that some new tables have been added or the structure has been changed? Will it affect the current settings... Ie Messaging... RBS... etc.? |

| Another quick question... similar in nature ... when installing 1.6.5 can I skip the database deployment phase? No. You MUST update the strutures. The changes will not require any effort on your part as these are primaryily related to BO Mapper enhancements and preferences with one change to security. But you have to load the structures or you will have some issues  |

| | Ok. So if I update the database structure by installing 1.6.5 on a spare machine but leave both of our development machines on 1.6.1 they'll still work right? I ask because we share the StrataFrame database between two computers and when I install 1.6.5 on our spare and then update the StrataFrame database that we share it wont break our development machines. |

| | Technically, yes. However, I would not do this. I recommend that all people developing on the SF project remain on the same version. Ther are other implemcations of developing on two different versions of SF. So I would wait until everyone is ready to move forward. |
