Introduction Introduction ImproMed, LLC has created this instruction manual to assist you with loading the Microsoft SQL Server 2008 product. In this document, we detail the steps necessary for Microsoft SQL Server 2008 to be implemented in your business. You may also need your Windows install CD. ImproMed, LLC Advises You to Proceed With Caution! Before loading this version of SQL Server, you must verify that your ImproMed Infinity Programs are version 4.3.591sr3 or higher and Triple Crown is 3.0 or higher (hereinafter referred to as Software ). Note: Earlier versions of the Software may have compatibility issues with the changes Microsoft has made to their SQL Server product. You can verify that you are on the correct version from the Software s desktop by clicking Help About ImproMed [Software]. The Software version number will be listed. It must be clearly understood that this is a Microsoft product installation and not an ImproMed product installation. As a Microsoft Certified Partner, ImproMed has the rights to distribute certain Microsoft products at a reduced cost to its customers. This distribution of SQL Server falls into this category. Microsoft SQL Server 2008, once installed, becomes an integrated component of the Microsoft operating system. Because of this close integration there exists the possibility of conflicts and the need to troubleshoot and repair certain aspects of the operating system. These potential issues are noted here in an effort to inform you, the consumer, of possible problems that could extend the time required to implement this version of Microsoft SQL Server 2008. Fortunately, most SQL Server 2008 installations will be clean installs on newly configured servers, which are unlikely to experience any of these potential difficulties, and it is not anticipated that many Software users will be making the transition from SQL 2000 to SQL 2008. With that in mind, please proceed through the following installation instructions to load Microsoft s SQL Server 2008 or SQL 2008 R2 product. If, after having read this entire set of instructions, you have any questions about the risks associated with this installation, please contact ImproMed at 800-925-7171. We would be happy to answer any questions you may have. Please be aware, however, that this is NOT an ImproMed, LLC product. If your install does not complete correctly, or if your server fails to function correctly once the product is installed, you will need to contact Microsoft for assistance. 3
