When you use the stand-alone installers for SAS Enterprise Guide 7.15 or for SAS Add-In 7.15 for Microsoft Office to upgrade from an earlier 7.1 release of either client, the upgrade to 7.15 does not occur.

Specifically, if the earlier 7.1 client was installed using the traditional SAS^® Deployment Wizard installation method rather than using a stand-alone installer, the 7.15 stand-alone installer runs and seems to install successfully. However, the earlier 7.1 client remains at its same release level.

You can use either of the following workarounds to resolve this issue:

• Install the 7.15 client by using the traditional deployment-wizard installation method instead of using the 7.15 stand-alone installer.
• Remove the installation for the earlier 7.1 client. Then, use the 7.15 stand-alone installer to install the 7.15 client.

This issue is fixed in SAS 9.4 TS1M5 (Rev. 940_18w30). Specifically, SAS Add-In for Microsoft Office is fixed in SAS Add-In 8 for Microsoft Office and SAS Enterprise Guide is fixed in SAS Enterprise Guide 7.15 (both from Rev. 940_18w30).
