		Qnet Vehicle Management is designed to be run as either a single user desktop application or a 
		multi user server application. It is compatible with SQL Server 2000, SQL Server 2005 and
		SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. The latter is included in this installation, if required. 

		SINGLE USER;
		For a single user where the database server will be on the local machine you can elect to leave 
		the default installation to localhost\SQLEXPRESS or enter the name of your existing local 
		database server. An empty databse will be created and attached to the requested database server.

		MULTI USER;
		For a multi user installation it is recommended that the initial installation of Qnet Vehicle
		Management is done on the Server machine running SQL Server 2000 or SQL Server 2005, the 
		database will then be created and attached to the requested database server automatically.
		If this is not possible, the database files will need to be copied from the installation 
		folder and attached manually. The VM1.exe.config file in the installation folder will need to
		be edited with the required database server name. 

		Once the initial installation is complete, subsequent users wishing to install the application 
		need only specify the name of the server where the existing database is located. 

		ALL INSTALLATIONS;	
		Qnet Vehicle Managent uses Active Directory to verify user access. By default the first user
		to install the application will be added to the Vehicle Management database with full 
		administrator access rights to all areas of the system.
		Subsequent users will need to be added using the Administrator interface within the application.

	Confirm Installation - Click 'Next'


Uninstall
