   Installation Notes

Installing RegEx is generally just a matter of running the installation program. If you downloaded the component from the Web, this will be a zip file that you can copy to your server and expand to reveal the setup.exe program. If you purchased RegEx direct from us, you can install it by running the program setup.exe on Disk 1 of the setup disks supplied. In rare cases, you will be prompted to over-write shared files where the setup program cannot uniquely identify the version of a currently installed file. You may like to make a copy of the file that is to be replaced in this situation. After installation, your Program Files\Stonebroom\RegEx directory will contain this documentation, the sample program, and the uninstall information for RegEx.


If the RegEx component is not recognized by your applications or by Active Server Pages after installation, or if the files have been moved to a different directory, you will need to re-register it using the regsvr32.exe program:
regsvr32.exe <path_to_stnregex.dll>\stnregex.dll
The default directory for installation of the component file is \Winnt\System32.


To uninstall RegEx, go to Settings | Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs and select Stonebroom.RegEx. If you have used it in any ASP pages under Internet Information Server, which caches components when they are first used, you should stop and restart the server before running the uninstall procedure. Note that if you have moved any files since installation, the uninstall procedure may not work correctly. In this case, you should un-register the component file using:
regsvr32.exe -u <path_to_stnregex.dll>\stnregex.dll
and then delete it manually from the disk.
