1. Double-click the Vista_ProjectCommunicationsDB_x.x.x.x.exe file on your Vista database server to run the database update wizard.
   It may take a few minutes for the system to prepare the InstallShield Wizard.
2. When the Vista Project Communication Database Server InstallShield Wizard appears, click Next.
3. On the Destination Folder window, verify the location of your Viewpoint repository or click Change to modify the location, and then click Next.
   The Database Server window appears.
4. Configure the Database Server options as follows.
   • In the Database server that you are installing to field, enter the name of the server where the Viewpoint database is located or click Browse to locate the server.
   • Under Connect Using:, select the Server authentication using the Login ID and password below option.

     The system defaults to the sa login.

     Note: If you do not know the password for the sa account, and you are using a login with Windows authentication, select the Windows authentication credentials of current user option.
   • In the Name of the database catalog field, leave the default of Viewpoint or click Browse to search for the database name if it is not Viewpoint, and then click Next.
   
5. In the Ready to Install window, click Install.
   The system begins the installation and displays the Installing Vista Database Server upgrade window. The installation process may take several minutes to finish.

   The wizard verifies the connection to your SQL Server.
8. In the Upgrade Type field, select Document Control.
   Note: In the Source Database field, leave the default setting.
