Downloading the Software

Click here to download the DataTrac Export Utility. At the prompt, choose Run to begin the install as soon as it has finished downloading to your computer.


Installing the Software

The installation program will guide you through several screens. The following describes the windows and options you will encounter:
 
Welcome
  This is the first screen you will see as the installation begins. It simply recommends that you close any open programs before continuing the installation.

Click Next to continue or Cancel to stop.

 
Select Website
  Specify which website you use for drawing your documents.

Click Next to continue, Back to return to the previous screen, or Cancel to quit without installing the DataTrac Export Utility.

 
Enter Custom Code
  Leave the Custom Code field blank unless you are certain that you have one. You may provide it later, using the configuration utility that is installed with the software.

Click Next to continue, Back to return to the previous screen, or Cancel to exit the installation.

 
Aggregate Rounding
  DataTrac uses a different aggregate rounding technique than the BrokerDocs.com software does, which may result in a small difference in the starting balance.

If you want to use DataTrac's rounding, check this option. If you do not want to use DataTrac's rounding or you are unsure, leave this option unchecked. You may change this setting later, using the configuration utility that is installed with the software.

Click Next to continue, Back to return to the previous screen, or Cancel to quit without installing the DataTrac Export Utility.

 
Database Selection
  Type the DSN name and login information for DataTrac's database. If you don't know this information, see your system administrator.

Click Next to continue, Back to return to the previous screen, or Cancel to stop the installation.

 
Choose Destination Location
  In the DataTrac Folder field, identify the location where DataTrac is installed. The DataTrac Export Utility will not work with an invalid location, so if you are unsure, see your system administrator.

By default, the DataTrac Export Utility will install to C:\Program Files\LOSUtils\DTExport in the Destination Folder field. If you would like it installed in a different location, click the Browse button.

Click Next to continue, Back to return to the previous screen, or Cancel to quit the installation.

 
Start Installation
  This is the last screen before the setup program copies files onto your computer.

Click Next to continue, Back to return to the previous screen, or Cancel to stop without installing the DataTrac Export Utility.

 
Installation Complete
  This screen will appear once the DataTrac Export Utility has been installed. You may now use the DataTrac Export Utility to export data from DataTrac into the BrokerDocs.com software.

Click the Finish button to exit the install.
