[AG-TECH] shared browser

[Susanne Lefvert]

Ok, I have been able to reproduce this error. Apparently, when installing 
2.2, the old SharedApplications directory and ApplicationDatabase file 
remains from 2.1.2 and causes problems.  If solved this by renaming 

C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application 
Data\AccessGrid\Config\ApplicationDatabase 

as well as

>C:\Documents and 
Settings\<username>\Application>Data\AccessGrid\Config\SharedApplications

and then reinstalling the AGTk 2.2.

Please let me know if this solves your problems. 

Susanne
