transfer cidital database

[mwjenn]

Will some tell me what is the excat procedure for transfering the database to another computer.

I had a computer fail and replaced it with a temp laptop till I replaced it with a permanet computer several months ago.

I tried to transfer the dabase but it would not show trend data.

I cannot remember exactly what I did, just know it did not work.

Lookout ver 6.0.1

Take a look at this KB

If two computers are both working fine, you can use the MAX to archive the database from one computer to another.

If one computer has problem, and you only have the database files, just copy all the files to the destination computer. And follow the KB to attach the database.

To verify if the database is successfully attached, you can create trend viewer in MAX to view the trend.

And then, you need to tell Lookout to use this database. Configure the system default database in Option->System, or specify a database for the process in File->Modify Process.
