Total Access SourceBook 8.0 Update Page

Total Access SourceBook 8.0 is our Code Library and Repository Tool for Microsoft Access 95/97 users. One of Total Access SourceBook’s most exciting features is that we regularly add new code and update existing code, and make these updates available on our web site.

If you own Total Access SourceBook 8.0, read the information on this page for important update information.

How Do I Know If I Need This Update File?

It’s easy to check on your Total Access SourceBook version.

  1. Start Total Access SourceBook 8.0
  2. From the menu, select Help, About
  3. In the About box, there is a section titled "Program Information". If this box contains the text "Update Version: 6, Dated 9 March 1999", you do not need to apply this update. Your installation of Total Access SourceBook already has the latest code. If there is no "Update Version" text in this dialog, or the text "Update Version: 1", "Update Version 2", "Update Version 3", "Update Version 4", or "Update Version 5" appears, you should apply this update.

Can I apply this update to other FMS products?

No. This file is specifically designed to update Total Access SourceBook 8.0 to the current version. For information on updates available for other FMS products, click here.

Instructions for applying this update

  1. Click to download the file SB_AC806.EXE(Approx. 133KB). Save this file in a temporary directory on your computer.
  2. When the download is complete, extract the update files by running the SB_AC806.EXE program. A dialog appears asking you to specify the output directory for the extracted files. Input the name of a temporary directory to use. You may want to use the same directory where you downloaded the SB_AC805.EXE file. After you have specified the output directory, press the [Unzip] button. If the operation succeeds, a dialog appears telling you that 2 files were extracted. Press the [Close] button to close the program.
  3. Start the Total Access SourceBook 8.0 Administrator Program. (See the User Guide if you need help starting this program.)
  4. When the Administrator program menu appears, select the "Apply Update" button. Follow the on screen prompts to apply the update file to your installation of Total Access SourceBook 8.0. See the User Guide for complete information on this process.
