Personal License Bump

I have an installer that uses Panorama and works perfectly for 
installing new files or for updating existing files - with one 
exception. If the end user is updating files and has a Personal 
License they get the blue letter treatment as their data is loaded 
into new files and re-saved. With as many as 34 files to update, 
that's not only an absolute pain in the butt, it also leads to errors 
in the process.

The installer launches via a renamed copy of Panorama on a disk image 
and uses autoload and a file set. This was done to ensure that the 
Panorama 5.5 on the installer was used. Previously I had my installer 
simply launch like any other Panorama file, but if the customer had 
an already installed, earlier version of Panorama, that copy often 
launched from their hard drive and created other errors.

So I seem to be caught between a rock and a hard place. No matter 
which way I go, I'll have some customers experiencing errors.

I'm not hopeful, but if anyone has ideas or suggestions....
