E-mail database and logs to support |
Top Previous Next |
This function is found under the Help menu. For certain technical support issues, you may be requested to use this function to send a copy of your database files and/or other files to support technicians for diagnosis. This function makes it easy to do so.
NOTE: Please use this function only after requested by support. If a database is send without it being requesting first, support technicians will not know the history of the issue and will not be able to help you.
Include current database -- You will almost always want to include the current database, so that option should be checked.
Include an auto-backup -- If an older database is needed for comparison, you can select an auto-backup date to include here. These backups are always on the computer, so you don't need to look for your manual backups.
Include log files -- If logs are needed to investigate specific activity, you will be instructed to include a certain number of past days of log files.
E-mail text / additional notes -- You can enter as much text as you like here, to further describe a problem or give any details requested.
When all options are selected and you're ready to send, click the Send button. This will send it through our own E-mail server. It may take several minutes to send, so don't do it during a busy time.
