Creating a New Database - Single-user

To create a new single-user database, follow these steps:
  1. Ensure there is no database file with the name "HANSA.HDB" in the folder containing the Standard ERP application, then launch the application by double-clicking. A new database will be created automatically.

    The "DBDEF.TXT" and "DEFAULT.TXT" text files must be present in the same folder as the application when you create a new database. Standard ERP will use these files to set some initial preferences in the new database.

    !

    The installation will not be correct if the "DBDEF.TXT" file is missing.


  2. The 'Welcome to Standard ERP' window will appear, asking you how you want to use the application:

  3. Click the [Single User Database] button if you are starting Standard ERP for the first time, or the [Import Textbackup] button if you have already been using Standard ERP and you need to import a back-up file to a new database. The first option is described here: for details of the second, please refer to the Restoring from a Back-up page.

  4. Create a new Company and User Account for yourself, as described in steps 4-9 on the Creating a New Database - Server page, and log in. The Navigation Centre will appear, with your name shown in the title bar. This is illustrated on the Work Area page.

  5. You can now record your full company details, enter extra Companies if you need them, import set-up data and apply for an Enabler Key.
