Reregistering a data source

You use the Reregister Datasource page to reregister data sources that have previously been unregistered, to make them available again to users in Asta Powerproject Enterprise.

To access the Reregister Datasource page, click Reregister on the Datasources page.

1. Enter a name with which to identify the data source in the Datasource name field.
2. In the Server field, enter the IP address of the machine on which SQL Server is located, followed by the port number that was specified in the TCP/IP pipes connection during initial setup of SQL Server. The IP address and port number must be separated by a comma and a space, for example 192.168.152.208, 1433. The port number is 1433 by default.
3. Enter the name of the SQL Server database that corresponds to the data source in the Database field.
4. Enter the user name and password of the SQL Server user you have created in the Username and Password fields.
   
   Select the Show password check box if you want the password to be displayed as you type it, or clear this check box if you want it to be obscured.
5. Click Create. The data source is reregistered and you return to the Datasources page, where a card appears for the data source.
