Adding Newton by Agency Systems to a workstation requires the installation of Pervasive.   The instructions below reference the most current version of pervasive, however your office may be running an older version. Since all versions of Pervasive on the same network must match, please contact [http://www.agencysystems.com/support Agency Systems Support] to verify the installed version before proceeding.
