pgadmin 1.8.4 Upgrade

From

I currently have ver. 1.8.2, which was installed (Windows 2000 Prof) 
from the postgres package.  I downloaded the 1.8.4 upgrade.  When I run 
the upgrade.bat file, the MSI install screen comes up but then exits 
without installing.  I don't show PgAdmin in add remove programs, 
(because it was installed from postgres pkg?).  Do I need to move the 
download to a particular location?

You cannot upgrade the copy of pgAdmin bundled with PostgreSQL in that
way (it can only be upgraded using the updated PostgreSQL installer).
Just run a regular installation of pgAdmin - it will install in
parallel and work just fine. Better yet, wait a few days for
PostgreSQL 8.3.3 which will come with pgAdmin 1.8.4 and upgrade the
PostgreSQL package.

checkit out.  Can always uninstall when PG 8.3.3 arrives.<br /><br />     Excellent program!!<br /><br />

You didn't notice that pgAdmin upgrades usually come a few days before
PostgreSQL updates? You need to start paying more attention :-p
