Connecting to an acQuire Database

There are two options for connecting to an acQuire database:

• Create a new connection. To do this, right-click on the Drillhole Data folder and select Import Drillhole Data via acQuire > New Selection. In the window that appears, choose whether to connect using ODBC or DAP. Select the server and click Connect. Next, enter the login details supplied by your database administrator.
• Create a connection from an existing selection file. Right-click on the Drillhole Data folder and select Import Drillhole Data via acQuire > Existing Selection. Navigate to the location where the selection file is stored and open the file.

Once connected to the database, you will be able to select the required data. When you have finished specifying the selection, click OK to import the data. The import process is similar to that described in Importing Drillhole Data.

Once the drillhole data has been loaded, you can:

• Import additional interval tables. See Importing Interval Tables.
• Appending drillhole data. See Appending Drillholes.
• Reload drillhole data. See Reloading Drillhole Data.

Saving a Selection

Saving a selection saves the acQuire database in its current state. You can use a selection to import the same set of drillhole data in new Leapfrog Geo projects.

To save an acQuire selection, right-click on the Drillholes object in the project tree and select Save Selection. You will be prompted for a filename and location.
