First Time Installed Indicator?

[NewsArchive]

Is there a first time installed indicator? I perform a zip backup of
the app and data before installing a new version. But on the initial
install, there is nothing to backup. Is there a function or variable
that is set if the app is not installed?

Thank you.

If you have uninstall enabled, you can use the "Detect Previous Version..."
script function to handle this.

And of course, you can check if the data files exist (see "If
File/Folder..." Statement).

Does this help?

Thanks, I will check if the file/folder exist.
