Operating System Requirements
|
Recommended: Windows XP
Other compatible versions: Windows 2000, Windows Vista, Windows 7
.NET Framework: 2.0 SP2
This application uses Visual Basic.Net, a Microsoft compatible language and, like many applications that require an MS Windows platform, MREP requires a .NET framework. More than likely one or more.NET frameworks were pre-installed on your Windows operating system or Windows Update downloaded a newer version on your PC. You must have .NET framework version 2.0 SP2 on each PC using the MREP Application.
Note: .NET frameworks 3.0, 3.5, and 4.0 include the 2.0 SP2 framework so if one of these frameworks is present, .NET 2.0 SP2 does not need to be installed separately. Windows 8 users may need to install or enable the .NET 3.5 framework 3.5 on each PC that uses MREP.
If you do not have the necessary framework installed, you may receive a message stating that this version of the framework is required during the installation process and prompting you to install it.is required during the installation process and prompting you to install it.
By clicking Yes—and if you have access to the Internet—you are redirected to the Microsoft web site to download the .NET framework 2.0 SP. Download NetFx20SP2_x86.exe for 32-bit systems or NetFx20SP2_64.exe for 64-bit systems. We do not recommend that you download a beta version of the .NET framework if you are presented with this option on the Microsoft web site.
Outside of the application installation process, you may also visit the link to Microsoft .NET Framework Version 2.0 Service Pack 2 at the Microsoft website to transport directly to the location on the Microsoft web site to download the 2.0 SP2 .NET framework version.
If you want to learn more about the 2.0 SP2 .NET Framework version and/or determine if you need to install this version, you may visit
.Net Framework Developer Center at the Microsoft website.
Please follow the directions within the web site when using this link.
If you do not have access to the Internet and you receive a message to update your .NET framework, you have to obtain a copy of the .NET framework from Microsoft. The Medicare Remit Easy Print application does not work without the appropriate .NET framework installed on each machine accessing the application.
