5.6 install hangs

Can't help with the answer you want... But you know you can just copy the
programs into place and put the license into place and you'll at least be
running until you can get the install working properly.  In case it never
does... Piecemeal in the new edits and print code tables.  Don't forget the
help files.

Good luck. 

Incidentally, obviously you picked the upgrade with no changes option?  You
certainly wouldn't have picked new install if you had the old filePro
running programs.  I'm curious if there were graphics patches needed to your
SCO 6.0.  I think there some patches required to the 5.6 and 5.7 SCO to make
filePro run.  Well actually, it was patches needed to 5.6 but I think they
were already in 5.7... So I guess they would be in 6.0 also.  Besides the
install might only need them when it calls filePro itself to finish the rest
of the install.  Or maybe it is a color thing?  Try the install choosing no
color if that is still available.
