Administrative permission for the operating system

If you have a previous version, uninstall it before installing this one.

Installation Steps:

Download and unzip the program archive.

Download and install the JDK from the web site where you downloaded NWDS. (You

must use the 32 bit version. Multiple JDKs can coexist on the same machine, but you

must have the 32 bit one for access by this program.)

Install the following programs:

o vcredist_86.msi (select Yes for install or repair)

o ibrfc32.msi

o sapchart.msi

o WDAdobeControlSetup.msi

Open the eclipse subdirectory where you unzipped the Developer Studio Application.

o Click on and run SapNetWeaverDeveloperStudio.exe

o You will be asked to select a workspace – specify a location where you would

like to store your files.

o On initial startup the system will look for the location of Javaw.exe – The file

usually is in the location below or (similar). (Note, you are telling the system

where to find the JVM that is a part of the JDK. You must download and install

the JDK and then point the install to that JVM.)

C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0_26\bin

Installation is now complete; you can restart Developer Studio by clicking on

SapNetWeaverDeveloperStudio in the folder. You might want to make a shortcut
