4. SQL Server Install/Select: Choose between using an existing SQL 2005 Server on the
network or setting up a SQL Server Express Edition on the computer itself.
Important: If you are updating from a previous version of XProtect Transact, we recommend
you install the new database application (read Updating from a Previous Version on page ).
o
If you choose to setup a SQL Express Edition, only edit the SQL services user and
System administrator password fields are required. For example, if your local security
setup requires you to use another user than the one suggested per default. If you chose to
use another user that the default, this user must already be known by the server.
o
If you use the existing SQL database, only edit available SQL servers if required. For
example, if your local security setup requires you to use another server than the one
suggested per default.
This installation may take a short while, after which you are automatically taken to the following
installation step.
5. Database Create/Select: If you are upgrading from a previous version, select whether you
want to use your existing database or create a new one. Specify a database password
manually only if your local security setup requires you to.

Next.
The XProtect Transact installation is complete.
