QTP, DB Checkpoint connection string - Leonid Barinshteyn - 08-16-2008

Is there a way to save connection string for a DB checkpoint and not enter it every time the checkpoint is needed?

Hi,
Create a Data Source name by following these steps.
Control Panel...>Administrative Tools...>Data Sources(ODBC)
Click on Add...>Select Drive For Microsoft Access Driver(>mdb) Or Oracle or Sqlserver.

Then when you creating Database Checkpoint just select the DataSource name you created.

Hope this helps.
