How to install and configure Hummingbird DM Server, DM Client

Question

I want to install Hummingbird DM 5.1 for Record Management. For that I have installed DM Server, RM Server and RM Client. But it seems this is not completed.

Do I have to install DM Web Server and DM Admin Tool?

Thanks

Prakash

Issues up to this moment: This installation setup is using Office 2000 and theres a problem opening excel files, the rest are OK. (word, ppt and pdf) Office 2007, it is reciprocal. There is no issue with Excel but problems opening word and ppt records.

In case you or someone is able to debug this integration problem. Do drop me a message. Thanks and I hope this helps.
