Program Maintenance Updates
If you are already using the software, the links at the foot of this page
allow you to download the latest 'build' of your program. These updates
correct any problems encountered by users of the software. In addition,
from time to time new features are incorporated to further enhance the
flexibility of the program. Before downloading, however, it is important
that you read the following guidance notes.
- In some countries, primarily the United States and Canada, Versions 4.0 and
5.0 of the 'HAZOP' program are known as 'HAZOP Manager'. In the latter,
the term 'Node' instead of 'Table' is used in menu options and other embedded
text. However, there are other less obvious differences, mainly with
regard to the installation configuration. It is therefore important that
you download the update that is targeted at the version you are using.
Note that following the release of Version 6.0, the software is now
universally named HAZOP Manager.
- The latest build number is given against each update. To check the
build number of your current program, select the menu option 'Help', then
'About HAZOP etc... In the dialog displayed the program's name and
version will be shown, followed by a number in brackets. This number in
the brackets is the build number of your current software.
- An alternative method of checking your program's build number is to right
click on the executable file (e.g. HAZV6.EXE) within Windows Explorer.
Select 'Properties' from the floating menu, and click on the 'Version'
tab. This will be shown in the format X.0.xx, with the 'xx' being the
build number.
- The downloads are installation programs. When run, they will update
the appropriate files on your hard disk and/or your original installation
diskettes. Just copying a downloaded file to your program's installation
directory will have no effect.
- The updates are targeted at standard 'HAZOP' or 'HAZOP Manager'
programs. Some companies are using versions of the software that have
been specially modified to suit their particular requirements. Those
companies should not download these updates. If in doubt as to
whether this applies to you, please contact us before proceeding.
- Current users of the software will know that a
security device is needed to run the program. To further discourage
others who might be tempted to download an update in the hope that they might
nevertheless be somehow able to run the program, these files are encrypted and
password protected. To obtain the password, we would ask you to complete
and send the form shown below. In response, we will forward the necessary
information to you.
- Finally, please do not attempt to upgrade an installation with a later
Version update (e.g. do not try to apply a V6.0 update to a V5.0
installation). It will not be successful, and will only cause unnecessary
work and perhaps technical support to reinstate your installation to its
previous configuration. Should you wish to upgrade your software to the
latest release, the required program pack may be purchased for a modest upgrade
fee.
Please note that all of the fields in the following form need to be
completed.

operating systems, all such drivers must now be digitally signed. You may
download an updated driver installation package by clicking on the link
below. Note that a password is not required to run this installation
program.

Installation - V7.22.0.39 (DK2Wn32.exe - 2.1

If you wish to install the software on a computer running Windows Vista or
Windows 7, rather than using a Build 16 or earlier CD, and then downloading and
applying the Build 24 update, and additionally separately downloading the
latest DESkey drivers, you may wish to use instead a complete Build 24
package . If this is the case, then e-mail
LihouTech Support-Vista-7, verify that you are a registered user by
including your company's name and your DESkey serial number in your message,
and we will reply with a link to download an integrated installation package
that will combine everything required to create a Windows Vista or Windows 7
installation. Please note that we will not respond to individuals or
companies that are not registered users.

HAZOP (Manager) V5.0 to
Word Export Templates
The following modifications have been made to the template files that are
used to create reports in Microsoft ® Word format. These new files
are dated March 2001, so if you have earlier versions you should consider
updating your installation. As the above heading indicates, these
templates are for use with Version 5.0 of the software only.
- The templates are now common to both the HAZOP and HAZOP Manager
programs. Previously, different template files were needed for either
program, primarily because of the need to differentiate between the European A4
and US Letter paper sizes. This differentiation is now accomplished
automatically.
- Changes have been incorporated to cater for those Word installations for
which the comma (',') is recognised as the decimal separator (e.g. 1234,00 as
opposed to 1234.00). This was previously causing error messages to be
generated when the export procedure attempted to set the document's margins,
etc.
- When exporting a data file in which no keywords, hazard category, severity
or frequency codes were defined, if the report also contained a page header
then an error message would be generated. This has now been corrected.
Using the link below you may download these updated template files. A
small text file containing explanatory notes is also included. Note that
as these template files are not viewable and cannot be edited, there is no need
for a password, and therefore no requirement to fill in and submit the form
above.

program, please contact us separately.
