for the installation instructions. When you install the Hummingbird DM release script,

you will install the required components referenced in the source code.

in Visual Basic.

Copy the newly created DMRel5_v7.dll to the installation directory (for example,

C:\Program Files\Ascent\CAP\DMRel5_v7\DMRel5_v7.dll). When you are prompted

to replace the existing file, select “Yes.” You will need to repeat this procedure on each

Administration and Release workstation that will be using the Hummingbird DM release

script. You may want to make a copy of the file for backup purposes, and store the copy in

a safe location.

Note

In order to successfully modify and compile the release script, development must occur on a

workstation with the appropriate versions of Ascent Capture, CAPTools, and the Hummingbird

DM release script previously installed. To use the modified release script, you must replace the

Hummingbird release script DMRel5_v7.dll with the modified version on the client workstation.

If you receive an access denied error, you will need to close the Administration module.

documentation for assistance.
