Hi Caryn,
Just wanted to update you on that issue with the Win 7 laptop which refused to upgrade to HIPS 8 P12.
I removed the existing version using a standard remove tag (very quick) and applied the tag to deploy HIPS 8 P12 and it too was fairly quick at this.
No need to interrogate the logs any further I guess!
Thanks for all your help, most beneficial.
Nick
