- Select Query -->Set User Information.
The Set User Information window opens.
- Type your user ID and Password for the server.
Note:
The user ID and password are case sensitive. For
example type your User ID and password in uppercase letters if they
are set up that way. Some types of database servers treat user IDs
and passwords as case sensitive; while, others do not.
The user ID and password cannot be the same as your local or
network user ID and password.
- Optional: Type the account number used
track system usage by certain criteria such as department or user
ID. Ask your database administrator to find out if your system uses
accounts.
- Optional: Check the Remember this password check
box to remember server passwords across QMF for Windows sessions.
- If you are logged on to Windows, the Set User Information dialog
box contains the Remember this password check
box. If this check box is selected, then the password for that server
is stored in the Windows password list. Whenever you are logged
on to Windows, QMF for Windows retrieves the password without a
prompt.
- If you are not logged on to Windows or if you are logged on
as a different user, QMF for Windows prompts you for a user ID and password.
Note:
If you check the Remember this password check
box, anyone who can log on to your Windows account can access your
database servers with your (server) user ID and password.
- Check the Use this information for every server I connect to check
box to apply the user information entered on the Set User Information
dialog box when connecting to any database server. This option is
useful if the current user ID and password, and optional account
information, are used at all database servers.
- Click OK.
QMF for Windows stores this information for accessing the server.
