Help <br />Concerning the the sample formdemo, ( formdemo.sql ) <br />This demo file is in the (
/usr/local/pgaccess/demo/formdemo.sql) directory, from the upgrade v 0.98. <br />Or you can download the ( formdemo.sql
)<u>file only</u>, from the PgAccess web site. <br />My question is, which directory do you put the ( formdemo.sql )
file.<br />So when you type <br />$ createdb formdemo <br />$ psql formdemo <formdemo.sql <br />I get no such file
ordirectory <br />Thanks, Roland <br /> <br /> <blockquote type="CITE">Roland N Verrier wrote: <br />> <br />>

withoutparameter and the from the Database/Open <br />menu, specify formdemo as your database, localhost to host, 5432
