Installing the Service Pack

Since this Service Pack replaces several Business Analyst and ArcGIS Desktop 8.3 files, Business Analyst 8.3c must be installed before you can install this Service Pack.

Make sure you have write access to your Business Analyst and ArcGIS Desktop 8.3 installation folders, and that no one is using Business Analyst or ArcGIS Desktop 8.3.
Download BA83c_SP1.zip (3 MB) to a location other than your installation location.
Use WinZip to extract the Business Analyst 8.3c Service Pack 1 setup.exe file from BA83c_SP1.zip.
Double-click the setup.exe file to start the install process.
When Setup starts, follow the instructions on your screen.

NOTE: If you have installed client setups from a shared Network Administrative ArcGIS Desktop setup, this Service Pack must be applied to all client installations.
