Using the PC-DMIS Settings Editor

In PC-DMIS 2010 MR2 and later, the PC-DMIS Settings Editor provides you with tools to not only edit PC-DMIS registry settings, but you can also use it to work with user data files and to view and update your license.

To launch the PC-DMIS Settings Editor:

1. Inside Windows, click on the Start menu and then click Program Files.

2. Click on the PC-DMIS for Windows program group and select Settings Editor. This will launch the PC-DMIS Settings Editor application in disconnected mode.

The Settings Editor operates in two modes, a disconnected mode and a connected mode. Initially the Settings Editor launches in the disconnected mode.

- Disconnected Mode - In this mode, the Settings Editor is disconnected from PC-DMIS, so no PC-DMIS registry entries are loaded. However, since no connection is made to pull in the registry entries, this mode is ideal if you want to quickly backup, restore, or reset user and system data files. See "Working with Backup Files and User Data".

- Connected Mode - Once you click Connect, PC-DMIS loads in the registry items into the list box. You can still work with backup and data files as discussed in disconnected mode; but in addition, you can now edit desired PC-DMIS registry entries. See "Editing PC-DMIS Registry Entries".
