Switching from PhraseExpress Server
A PhraseExpress Server installation can seamlessly be upgraded to a Microsoft SQL Server setup with this easy procedure:
- Keep running the PhraseExpress Server.
- Install the PhraseExpress SQL Client Manager which includes the option to install a free Microsoft SQL Server (Express Edition).
- If you keep the PhraseExpress SQL Client Manager running, the to be installed new PhraseExpress clients can find and connect to the SQL server without additional configuration.
- Upgrade only one of the PhraseExpress client(s). The new PhraseExpress client will convert the PhraseExpress Server phrase file to a Microsoft SQL server database. Please note that this can take a while for bigger phrase files.
- Uninstall the PhraseExpress Server.
- Upgrade the PhraseExpress clients on the remaining computers.
