WSDOT eForms User Guide

 

- March 2010

If this is your first installation of the WSDOT eForms,
please disregard this section

New for the March 2010 Release

This release of the WSDOT eForms will install the Runtime forms in a new directory named 

WSDOT_Forms\DOTeForms_3.10 

in the c:\Program Files\WSDOT_Forms folder.  The forms 

from the previous release will not be changed or removed.  After installation of the Runtime 
forms, you have several options concerning the data saved in the previous Runtime forms:

1.  

If you want to incorporate the data saved in the previous versions of the Runtime forms, 

you can import the data from the older form versions 
(

WSDOT_Forms\DOTeForms_3.09\eForms

directory) to the new versions (

WSDOT_Forms\DOTeForms_3.10\eForms 

directory).  

Simply follow the instructions on importing and Exporting records in 

Section 9

 

of the 

User’s Guide.

Once all of the data from the older versions are imported you can delete the 

DOTeForms_3.09  

directory to conserve disk space.

2.  

You may want to preserve the data in the older form versions, in which case you need do 
nothing.  They will not be affected by the new forms installation.

3.  

If you do not want to save the data from the earlier form versions, you can delete the 

DOTeForms_3.09

 directory to conserve disk space.

We have added more electronic forms:
