Upgrading Seascape for Notes (NSF)

Below are the instructions to upgrade your Seascape installation to a newer release.

1. Download the product version you are upgrading to (by using the download link provided by SWING Software) and extract the .nsf file from the ZIP package.

2. Create a template file using the following steps:

  • Rename the extracted .nsf file to .ntf file (please make sure to have file name extensions visible in your file explorer).

  • Move the .ntf file to your Notes Data folder so it can be easily accessible when replacing the design

3. Replace the design of the original Seascape database with the database template from step 2 using these steps:

  • Right click the Seascape database and select Application > Replace Design.

  • In the Replace Database Design window select the Seascape database template (1) and hit the Replace button (2):

4. After the template has been successfully replaced, open your Seascape database. Seascape will automatically detect that a newer version has been installed and will prompt you to refresh the required resource files saved on disk.

After you confirm the prompt, Seascape will update the resource files on the disk and ask you to restart your Notes client.

After a restart, the upgrade procedure has been completed and you can continue to use the product normally.

If you don't wish or need to save your Seascape settings while upgrading, then you can also perform a clean install by simply deleting the old Seascape.nsf file from your system and copying and installing a fresh copy.
