Database List View Tab of the Weblink Form

Use the Database List View tab to view all of the databases that are currently set up within Weblink.

Tab Toolbar

Field Description
Save Select this option to save your changes.
Change Password Select this option to change your Weblink password.
Delete Old Databases This option is typically used for internal Deltek purposes. Click this button to remove all databases whose version is different from the database version used with Deltek Vantagepoint (for example, if you are running multiple databases at one site, perhaps in a test scenario). Weblink also removes all databases to which a connection cannot be made.

If there are any pending Weblink changes, a message displays asking if these changes should be saved before removing the old database. After the old and unreachable databases are removed, Weblink is refreshed with the new data.

Select All Click this icon to select all the databases in Weblink at once.
Move Up and Move Down Use these icons to move a database up or down in the grid. First, select the Select check box for a database that you want to move. Then, click Move Up or Move Down.

The order of the databases in this grid can control the order of the databases in the drop-down list on the Deltek Vantagepoint Login dialog box, but only if you complete the additional steps to modify the web.config file. For instructions on how to modify this file, see the help topic titled "Modify the Web.config File to Add the Vantagepoint Database Sort Order." If you do not modify the web.config file, the order of the databases in the drop-down list in the Deltek Vantagepoint Login dialog box is alphabetical by database description.

Delete To remove a database profile from the Weblink utility, select the Select check box for a database that you want to delete, and then click this option.
