After you install Microsoft Commerce Server 2002 Service Pack 2 (SP2), you try to install the Direct Mail component or other Microsoft Commerce Server 2002 components by using the Setup program (Setup.exe). When you do this, the installation is unsuccessful. Additionally, you receive the following error message:
Setup has detected that a newer build of Commerce Server is already installed. If you would like to install an older build, you must first remove the newer build using Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel.
