PEYSANJ database is a Microsoft Access file stored in the path shown by "Access database path" in the Advanced tab of the Options page. Your project data for bearing capacity analysis, plate loading test analysis, and pressure-meter test analysis is saved in a database file. It is very important to prepare periodic backups of your database file.


 

Preparing a Backup of Your PEYSANJ Database

Click on Backup Database button and specify the location on your hard drive where you want the backup file (PEYSANJ4.MDB) to be copied. When the backup file is prepared, simply copy it to your flash drive, burn on CD, etc. and keep in a safe place.

 

Restoring PEYSANJ Database

If you are transferring PEYSANJ to another computer, or recovering from a computer crash, you may want to restore your PEYSANJ database to be able to load the old projects. If you want to restore a database, click on Restore Database! button, and select the database file (this is the file already backed up by you). This will replace the existing database file.
