Hello:

I just bought installed my PTHE2 w/ postgresql, which I don't know if i should have selected to use postgresql or not, I just did it. Anyway when I try to import hands from pokerstars, I get the following popup error message:

ODBC Microsoft Access Driver Login Failed
Could not use '|'; file already in use.

What should I do to fix this problem?

Thanks
Chris

That's not a PostgreSQL error, if you converted to PostgreSQL then you missed some steps in the "After PostgreSQL is installed" section here

I am running Vista. I don't really need the advanced capabilities postgreSQL has to offer... do I need to uninstall PTHE2 and download the version w/o postgreSQL since I'm running Vista?

Thanks

If you don't want to use PostgreSQL, go to the File > Maintain Database Names window.
Click the Add button.
Enter a new db name/description, check the "Dflt" box and then in the last field select "Create new, empty Access database" from the list.
Click OK to save the changes.
NOW CLOSE AND REOPEN POKER TRACKER and you should be ready to import into this new database.
