How do I Set up TRAIN TRACK®?
After TRAIN TRACK® is installed, you will need to open the program to finish the setup process. To open TRAIN TRACK®, go to Start > Programs > TRAIN TRACK, or use the shortcut if you created one during installation.
Connect to your Database
When you open TRAIN TRACK®, if you see a screen indicating that you need to connect to your back-end database, you may connect using a DSN or DSN-less connection. Before you begin, you will need to make sure that your Windows user has been given permission to access the database through SQL Server Management Studio. For more detailed information on connecting to your database, see the installation instructions.
We recommend using a DSN-less connection. This uses a connection string without setting up an ODBC connection, and usually offers better performance.
To set up a DSN-less connection, follow these steps
DSN (Data Source Name) is a connection set up using your ODBC Data Sources feature.

Import Data from a Previous Version
If you have data you would like to import from an earlier edition of TRAIN TRACK® Desktop Edition, version 7 or higher, select this option. Note: if you are using an older version, you must update to version 7 before you can update to later versions. If you have an earlier version of the Client/Server Edition, version 7 or higher, you will not need to import your data; instead, your database will be updated to this version during installation. Contact us for assistance importing data from the Client/Server version 6 or earlier.
CAUTION: Use this feature only when importing to a BLANK (new) database. It is not designed for merging data from multiple databases.
To import data from a previous version, follow these steps:
Important: Do not delete your old file until you are sure everything was imported correctly. We recommend keeping the old version as one of your backup files.
