Step 4
Running the Program as a Prior User
If you are upgrading from
YL Family DB 2.0 or earlier versions. You must first upgrade to 2.0.1. Go to
archived Version 2.0.1 web site and follow the instructions.
We no longer offer support for versions prior to 2.0.1.
If you are upgrading from
YL Family DB 2.0.1 Please Continue
In order to upgrade your 2.0.1 program to the new 2.1 version, you must be able to
locate the folder containing the current version of the program and the following files: YL Family DB 2.0.1, YL Notes 2.0.1
and YL History 2.0.1. Using a short cut on your desktop will not work because you will need to
locate the actual files folder, which is probably in your My Documents folder.
Now just run the new program by double-clicking on YL Family DB 2.1 inside the YL Family Files 2.1 folder.
Follow the instructions, after entering your new registration code you will be given directions to Upgrade
From your 2.0.1 version.
CONGRATULATIONS YOU ARE DONE!

moved into the new version of the YL Family DB program.
