List
SQL Server contains all available Microsoft SQL servers.
The system does not always allow to list all existing servers.
If your server is not listed, enter its name manualy.
Name of the database to open should be entered in field Database
. You may also display list of all databases available on a selected server,
but first you have to set connection parameters described below.
When you have done that, click Select to see the list
of available databases.
Frame Connection properties contains all options
necessary for succesful authorisation on SQL server.
There are two ways of authorising:
- Windows authorization - Username
and password used during login in Windows will also be used to
login to SQL server.
- SQL Server authorization - you have
to provide your own username and password to authorize in
SQL server. Use fields Username and Password.
If you check field Remember username and password you won't
have to provide them each time you start uplook.
When you have entered path to a database file click
Finish to open the database. If it is opened succesfully, the database
becomes the default database. It will be opened automaticaly on program start.
If the opening database fails,
there are four probable reasons. If any of those cases takes place,
it may be have to be nesessary to contact server administrator.
- SQL server does not exist,
is not running or is not physicaly connected to the network
(network failure).
- Specified user does not exist.
- Specified password is incorrect.
- Specified user does not have
required priviledges to modificate the database.
