Complete way update for FWH to newest version

So now and then I update my FWH version to the newest.

My Process :

Rename folder FWharb to FWharb_versionxx

Install the FWH.exe file and done (until now i think)
I think that some of my problems are due to NOT complete all updates.

I have a Build.bat and MAK file on my program folder that is n ot changed until I need to add a lib like ex. Mysql.lib (or somethink like that)

I noticed now for first that the buildh.bat in the samples folder is also changed by next versions, mostly adding some extra libs

This file parts of buildh.bat link items is also important to update into my program folder right ?

I include sometimes files like :

Include

report
fileio
btnget
mail
barcode

and

request

DBFCDX
DBFNTX
DBFFPT
DBFDBT

Some of these I see in the buildh.bat files, so they are linked in if I put the lines of buildh.bat into my own .mak file.

Are you guys doing it the same way ? In my way FWH is not fully updated i think.

Marc,

The way you do it is perfectly fine

Have you had any issues ?

I'm not sure if issues are part of the update procedure. (mostly my level of programming is the issue :) :) )

I didn't update the lines in buildh.bat from the new versions, now i will and see if it make any difference.

It's mostly to learn FWH better for the update procedure.

I see sometimes more #includes in programs samples in the forum and also some request call.
In the buildh.bat it seems that some of them are linked in and then I think the request is maybe not nesserary. I will look into it.
