Installation

Click on the No button to install an empty database.

If you click Yes to install the sample database, a TransAct Database
Utility screen appears with a graphic progress box so you can monitor
the database installation.

When the database installation is 100% completed, a message with a
single OK button is displayed alerting you to the successful installa-
tion.

Click OK to continue. The TransAct program login screen appears and
you are ready to begin.

To continue with login directions and establishing security access for
all planned users, turn to the Security Logins and Passwords section on
page 27 now.

To learn how to quit the TransAct program, or how to recover a
database from an incorrect shutdown, power outage, or system error,
continue reading in this section.

Quitting the Program

Click on the Quit button from the main menu toolbar.

Database Recovery and Restoration

If TransAct is not exited correctly due to a power outage or system
error, the database may become damaged. TransAct has a built in
tolerant structure to help prevent losing information. By storing mini-
backups of the database, TransAct can recover damaged databases.

The next time TransAct is started after a power outage or system error,
the following message will appear.
