Just in case you haven’t seen it. MS has released a new update to NAV 5.0 SP1. To me it looks like everybody should get this update ASAP. There are many platform (exe file based) updates included in this update. Some of them which seams to me like very serious:
When you run the Cut function and then the Paste function between two Microsoft Dynamics NAV tables, Microsoft Dynamics NAV unexpectedly deletes the data before the data is pasted successfully.
When you export a number to an Excel worksheet, the number is formatted as text instead of as a number. Therefore, Microsoft Dynamics NAV does not consider the regional thousand separator as expected.
The only problem is that Microsoft refers to the NAV 5.0 SP1 page on their partner source website, where it should be possible to download the update. Sad to say that it is not available from this page yet.
I requested the KB 956161 Hotfix, which claims to to be “Global”. Once I had extracted it using the Password. I had the file NAV50-SP1-KB956161-CH.ZIP.
When I run the Setup (Platform Update for Microsoft Dynamics NAV CH 5.0 SP1 (KB956161).exe) on a PC installed with NAV5.00 SP1 (Build 26084), I get an error message “The Upgrade patch cannot be installed by Windows Installer Service, because… Verify that the Program to be updated exists on your computer and that you have the correct upgrade patch.”
Is this patch really inteded for NAV 5.00 SP1 W1? I would have lioke to see “W1” instead of “CH”
Any Ideas on how to get this Rollup done (for especially W1)?
