    Stop 2000i engine, run 9.5 engine, and Stop 9.5 engine, run 2000i engine

    I work at a College where the Curriculum dictates the software used.  In this situation I am installing two pieces of software that require 2 different versions of Pervasive Database Engine ( 2000i engine, 9.5 engine) and you cann't run them at the same time.  I have figured out in order for each software to run  correctly, the specific engine needs to be started prior to the start of  the program.  In order for this to happen I need to develope shortcuts to start the 9.5 engine (which I have - see below), however I need help in writing a script  that will uninstalls/stop the 9.5 engine.  The Program that uses the 2000i engine, starts it as the program starts and stops it as the program ends.

    Script to start:  C:\PVSW\bin\w3dbsmgr.exe -SRDE

    Script to stop:  ?

     Thanks,

    G.  Cook

    I do not have either of these versions installed, but look in the PVSW/BIN folder for:

    pvkillwg.exe

    If you have, when run, it will unload the WGE.
