After I convert and begin using SQL: Can I create a New Company File?
All Orders 3.X
No!!! While it is true that on Version 3.1.26 and below,
from the log in screen you could click on "cancel" and then traverse thru the
New Company Setup Wizard and pretend that you have created a brand new company file, the
reality is that you have just modified your exisitng SQL database and also
the reality is that you have made this modification resulting in unpredictable results.
To do the creation of a brand NEW COMPANY FILE legitimately you must TAKE OUT THE
DB PROVIDER from the Windows Registry...thru executing the Windows "regedit" command.
You can enter this command thru the "Run" panel available thru your basic "Start" button
at the lower left corner of your system (unless you moved your windows task bar).
The registry key you need to modify is the HKEY-LOCAL-MACHINE, then click on SOFTWARE
then click on NUMBERCRUNCHER, then look for "dbprovider: SQL", DOUBLE CLICK ON IT and
Windows will present you with a screen to update it...just delete all characters, go back to
Number Cruncher and then run the New Company Setup Wizard....you will then create a brand
new company file again in MS Access. All you have then is go thru the same instructions you
followed before in converting your data.
