Once you have determined with which database system you want to test (we recommend the SQL2005 Express version on the downloads page), download the three component files as detailed on the appropriate section.
The 1st component is then run to install the SQL backend database system.

Note... The install will force a reboot of your PC. Make sure that other programs are closed before starting the install process.

( -If you already have a Microsoft SQL system, then you do not need this 1st component. But you will need sa Administrator access to your SQL system. Your db-Administrator will likely want to edit the LMSrestore.sql script installed as part of the Component 2 processing below)    

The 2nd component will install a few files into a folder C:\Gendata and then perform a sql restore procedure to install the testing database. The process uses the sql script in the file C:\Gendata\lmsrestore.sql.   This is the file your db Administrator may wish to edit should you be using an existing MS-SQL engine.

The 3rd component will install the test SQL version of Genawise LMS (Loan Manager System). 

The next step is to run the LMSConfigure program to set the SQL connection details

Once connection details are set, then you should start the LMS program and select the Test dataset. The system will take up to about 20 seconds to show the next screen. Normally this would be about 1 second if the connection is successful.  

Once you see the logon screen, you can use the in-built logons and passwords. 
logon:    admin1    password:    zzzzzzzz

logon:    admin2    password:    zzzzzzzz
