Does ProcessWorx provide international shipping? When

Who should I contact if I do not receive my order?
A:
International shipments are dependent upon the service provided by local
postal authorities in the destination country. Shipments outside the

feedback about the ProcessWorx CMDB-- please send questions or comments
to
service@processworx.com.
Q: How do I get started using the
ProcessWorx CMDB?
A: While we
have designed the ProcessWorx CMDB to be as easy to use as possible, you
should spend some time familiarizing yourself with the basics before
using it. To do this, use the application with the demo data provided to
get a better understanding of the relationships, attributes, services,
forms and reporting features provided within the application. You may
also review the CMDB Reference Guide (Help) feature, accessible by the
icons distributed throughout the application user interface.

another database format?
A:
ProcessWorx can assist
customers with customizing solutions to fit their environment including

A: Additional information on the
purpose of the CMDB and benefits inherent to establishing a robust
Configuration Management process can be found in the
CMDB Overview section.

Q: I cannot uninstall the CMDB client application from
the Windows Add/Remove Programs menu. How can I fix this?
A:
In
order to uninstall the ProcessWorx application, the installer subsystem
must be able to access the original installation files and folders. If
file locations and/or settings have moved, changed or were inadvertently
purged from the host system, the installer cannot properly uninstall the
application and may fail. To permanently remove the application and
reset the program attributes, you may use the Windows Install Cleanup
Utility; a description of this utility and download links can be
found on the Microsoft Support website =>
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=290301.
Q: Will the
ProcessWorx CMDB work with existing versions of Microsoft Access?
A: Some installations of the CMDB
runtime environment may conflict with additional MSAccess database
environments installed on the same system. It is recommended that all
installations be made on systems without additional instances of the
Microsoft Access database or runtime environment. Organizations may also
consider the CMDB
Developers Version for custom configuration and development of the
CMDB to allow operation in parallel environments, interface with
different database environments/operating systems, or meet specific
needs of their organizations.
