When installing an update of Visible Advantage, I am prompted to backup the INIT encyclopedia. Why?

A. The INIT encyclopedia is used to populate new encyclopedias with predefined types and data structure managers. Changes made to the INIT encyclopedia using the Visible Advantage Admin program will be incorporated in any new encyclopedias, and can be copied to existing encyclopedias. When new versions of Visible Advantage are installed, this INIT encyclopedia is overwritten, and any changes made will be lost.
