EP4 was written with the ability to remove the database data from the EP4 admin usage screen. Occasionally updates to the software require changes to the database information. To support this action, the existing entries had to be deleted and then re-installed. This evolution makes updating a little bit of a chore.

Recommend modifying the main page to offer an update statement related to the database that appears when applicable conditions exist to update versus install. Ideally this routine would share the sql that is used for initial install so that information need only be entered one time instead of more than one.
