Modify the Web.config File to Add the Database Sort Order

To change the order of the databases that display in the drop-down list on the Vantagepoint Login dialog box, modify the Web.config file.

In the Grid View grid on the Database List View tab of the Weblink utility, use the Move Up and Move Down toolbar options to order the Vantagepoint databases.

To modify the web.config file:

1. Back up the existing web.config file.
   The default location is under C:\Program Files\Deltek\.
2. Open Notepad using the Run as administrator option.
   To do this, right-click the Notepad shortcut, and from the shortcut menu select Run as administrator.
3. In Notepad, click File > Open.
4. On the Open dialog box, browse to the web.config file and click Open.
   The default location is under C:\Program Files\Deltek\.
5. In the <appSettings> section, near the beginning of the file, insert the following line as the last entry for the group of <Add Key=....... /> line entries:
   <add key="UseWeblinkSortOrder" value="Y" />
6. Click File > Save.
7. On your desktop, click Windows Start > All Programs > Accessories, right-click the Command Prompt submenu, and then select Run as administrator on the shortcut menu.
8. In the Administrator Command Prompt dialog box, enter the following command to reset IIS:
   iisreset /restart
   This reloads the web.config file that now contains the Vantagepoint database sort order.
