Specifications

The Restore from Backup window automatically appears if your database is corrupt and you need to

restore it.

Note: To restore from a backup, you must have a backup file already made. Be sure to backup

your Remote Link database frequently.

Note: When using Link with SQL Server, all backup and repair operations must be performed

by the database administrator, using SQL Server management tools. Remote Link does not

perform these operations.

Restore from File: Enter the file from which you wish to restore. Press the button to the right of the

field to browse for the most recent backup file.

Restore Location: Enter the location in which you want the backup to be restored.

Note: The Restore Location will typically be where your Remote Link database currently

resides.

Press the Restore button to restore your database from the selected backup file.

Note: If the Restore from Backup window does not automatically open, close Remote Link and

follow the directions below.

Go to Start > Programs > Remote Link.

Click on Restore Database.

It is possible your Remote Link account database may be damaged if your computer experiences a

power outage or a hardware or software problem that causes Remote Link to stop unexpectedly. The

configuration files in your Remote Link database. If you believe your Remote Link database is

damaged or corrupt, close Remote Link and follow the directions below.

Go to Start > Programs > Remote Link.

Click on Repair Database.

You will then see an information window listing off the database files that are being repaired. When

the database is repaired, the Log On / Off window will open.

Note: When using Link with SQL Server, all backup and repair operations must be performed

by the database administrator, using SQL Server management tools. Remote Link does not

perform these operations.
