To access this tool, go to the tools menu in the main menu bar, and select Database Maintenance Tools, then select Retrieve Records from sub menu. Once this has been done, the following dialog box will appear:
Figure 1: Retrieval Tool Form
The fields used in this form are described below:
File Path
This option allows you to enter the path of the file that will be used for retrieving the records.
Browse
When this button is pressed, a dialog appears which is user configurable. This dialog allows the user to select the desired path on which the backup file resides i.e. to be used for record retrieval purpose.
Cancel Retrieve
When this button is pressed, the records retrieval process is cancelled.
Retrieve
When this button is pressed, the records retrieval process is initiated.
Note: If you haven't deleted the records after taking the backup and you retrieve the backup file; then records are retrieved into the database to which MonitorWare Console is connected. In this case there would be a duplication of records. But if the records have been deleted and then retrieved then there would be no duplication of records.
