Problem:

The Client/Server is configured, but the we lost the  projects for most of our estimators.

Solution:

Chances are, your estimators had independent databases before you switched. When you switched you used the databases from just one estimator.

To merge projects from a stand alone workstation to the common data bases on the server, do the following:

• Configure the workstation to run as a stand alone workstation
• Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\eTakeoff\RView & double click on the ETkoCnfg.exe file
• Uncheck "Use Client/Server Configuration.

• Open Dimension
• Backup all of its Projects - click on this link: Backup All Projects
• Copy or move all project folders to the main Project Folder on the server

• Configure the workstation to run as a client/server 
• Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\eTakeoff\RView & double click on the ETkoCnfg.exe file
• Check "Use Client/Server Configuration.

• Navigate to each of the workstation's folder now located on the server and double click on the latest {Project}-ManualBackup-{##}.tpx file
• That will open eTakeoff and start the restore process
