Adding a data source definition
You might want to add another case data source to your interview script if, for example, you have been using a UNICOM Intelligence Data File to develop your script and you now want to change to using an RDB database. You might also need to use this option if your script was created outside of UNICOM Intelligence Professional and the default data source is not a UNICOM Intelligence Data File, an IBM SPSS Statistics SAV file, a UNICOM Intelligence XML file, or an RDB database.
The Configure Data Source dialog provides options for adding, editing, and removing data sources.
1 Click Tools > Auto Answer > Configure Data Source.
The Data Link Properties dialog opens.
2 In the Case Data Type list, select UNICOM Intelligence Data File, IBM SPSS Statistics File (SAV), UNICOM Intelligence Database (MS SQL Server), or UNICOM Intelligence XML Data File. An interview script can contain only one data source of each case data type, so select only a case data type that your script does not already have.
3 Click the Browse button to the right of the Case Data Location box.
If you selected UNICOM Intelligence Data File, IBM SPSS Statistics File (SAV), or UNICOM Intelligence XML Data File as the case data source, an Open File dialog appears. Enter the name and location of a new or existing .ddf, .sav, or .xml file, as appropriate, and click Open.
If you selected UNICOM Intelligence Database (MS SQL Server) as the case data source, enter the server name, database name, and any other information that is required for your server environment. Click OK.
4 In the Data Link Properties dialog, click OK.
5 Enter the information on each tab of the Data Link Properties dialog, and then click
OK. For more information, see
Data Link Properties dialog.
