Connecting to a database file

Clicking on the ellipsis (...) to the right of the File name prompt will open an Open file dialog. Using the Open dialog you can select a database file. You can also type the file name at the prompt or choose from a list of recently used databases by clicking the drop down button.

 

Connecting to a Network server

We suggest enabling the Ping connection feature to allow Dispatch to maintain a connection with the database server even while the application may be idle. This is especially useful in Unattending Weighing when the application may be idle for long periods.

 

 

Connecting to a Personal server that is running

Connecting to a running Personal server is the least common type of connection. It is really only required when you run Dispatch and QuickBooks on the same computer. IN this case only the Server property is required.
