Opening DB for the first time
Opening the Database for the First Time
The first time you open the database you will see the Software Registration screen. If you are trying the software out it will tell you how many days of the 30-day free trial are left. Just press OK and you will continue on to the next screen. If you have decided that you like the database and want it use it in your costume/ props shop then you may purchase a Software Registration Key from the “Store” on the Costume & Theatre Inventory Resources website or by calling our office to pay directly by credit card, check or purchase order.
Once the payment is received you will receive an email with the software registration key. After you enter the key you will not see the Software Registration screen again.
The next screen you will see – when you open the database for the first time – is the Company Information screen. This screen will allow you to enter the name of the school, university or dance company and a logo. Once these are entered you will see the company/school name and logo on the Startup Menu and on forms and reports. It is a nice way to personalize your database. See the Company/Application Information Setup section.
