Click the Edit DB button and then the "Location" choice on the Select Progress Tracker Database screen to edit the description of the selected database. |
Depending on your provider option, you will then see one of the screens below.
ASP
You can first edit the URL at which your ASP pages are located. This information is not used by the Administrator or Reporter but is required by the students running Progress Tracker modules. You will then see either the JET or SQL location dialog boxes below depending on your local provider setting.
JET
This is the location on your current system where the database is located. Notice that a relative path is from the sysToolBookDirectory. You may click the ... button to select an existing database. Note that this and other database information is stored in the tracker3.ini file located in the ToolBook directory. The installation routine would typically write the correct location to this file (if you don't use a relative path [we recommend a relative path instead]).
SQL
For SQL Server, we have two choices. The first is the name of the server that we are using. Notice that this can be an alias to a SQL Server located on a web server. You would create this alias using SQL Server's "Client Network Utility."
You then enter the name of the initial catalog (database) that contains your course(s). Be sure that you have used SQL Server to create a user name and password (SQL Server authentication rather than Windows authentication). You will need this when prompted to enter the username and password of the database.
