Collections MAX

You will need to download and install MySQL from http://www.mysql.com

After you install MySQL and configure the instance you will need to install the Database Installation Wizard that is found in the database folder in the collectionsmax.zip file that you downloaded from the website. 

You use the Database Installation Wizard to install the database and configure the usernames and passwords for Collections MAX.

Upon completion of the Wizard, you will either enter localhost (if the database is installed on the same machine) or the IP address of the computer that has the MYSQL database in the SERVER box.  You will also enter your USERNAME and PASSWORD to login.
