Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I get a message box during installation of an upgrade about Synchronization?

When you upgrade the software, you are also upgrading the Database.  This process is called synchronization.  If you are running scorecast in a Network environment or if you have any purged databases that you may want to access, you can synchronize them using this option.  This eliminates the need to change the registry setting and re-running the upgrade.  When you select “Yes”, you will be prompted for the location of the next database to synchronize.  You will continue to get the prompt, until you answer “No”.

 

I am trying to print labels, but now am getting a run time error, and I know I have printed them in previous releases.

A change was made in release 4.0.514 that added additional Address’s for printing.  There now are 3 address lines available for selection.  Open up the label editor/builder and remove the field named “Address” and replace it with the new address fields.

 

How do I change the location of my database?

1.   Select the System|Option menu selection.

2.   Select the Database tab

1.       At the bottom of the window, you will see the current Database location.

2.       To change the location, click on the ellipse (…)  button.

3.       Select the database you want to use.
