If you have included all newlook program files in the package (see Package newlook with RAMP-NL), newlook and RAMP-NL will be automatically installed.

If you want to install newlook manually, follow these steps:

Warning: Do not test your deployment package on your development system.

How to Do It

OK

Verify Newlook is installed

If newlook is not already installed on the workstation, locate the nl80.exe which will now be located in the partition execute directory (for example, X_WIN95/X_LANSA/X_DEM/EXECUTE/)

Run this application to install newlook.



Copy RAMP-NL files to the Newlook directory

When newlook is installed, copy the following files from the partition execute directory to the newlook directory (this will be Program Files/looksoftware 8.0 directory if you accepted the default settings):

  • Newlook.SID
  • Newlook.INI
  • VF_XP*.nlg file(s) 



Note: Ensure that the signon screen on the target IBM i server matches the signon screen on the development system. If you have used the username and password fields to identify the screen, they are usually in the same position on the screen. If they are not, you will need to define a newlook screen override for the signon screen on the target system.
