Trouble creating a new database in PT...

[pmuir10]

So I'm trying to create a new PT database. I go to maintain database names, add new etc etc.. then when i try to open the new database this window comes up that says "Select Data Source," and has all these confusing options. Is this something new with one of the patches, ive never seen it before? also what am i supposed to do at this window in order to finish creating my new database?

are you sure you created a new Access database?

If you have converted your access DB's to postgres, when adding a new one, you have to 1st create it in access then convert..

it appears that the old access db's don't get deleted when u convert them. and if u remove a database, it doesn't delete the database. what do i have to do to delete the temp access db i created?
