Updating DigIt Database
To start searching with DigIt, you have to tell DigIt which folder should it search in.
Step1 :To start updating your database, click the "Update Database" tab on top of DigIt.
Step2: Click on "Browse" button and select "Folder Path" for folder containing the chunk of documents you want to populate into DigIt database.
Step 3 (Optional): If you want to populate database into some file other than default setting, uncheck the " Default Database" Check Box
Step 4 (Optional) : Select Excel file where you want to populate database.
Step5 : Select or make a new sheet where database will be populated. If you are updating default database for first time, click the "Add new sheet" checkbox and give a name to your sheet.
Step6(Optional): Select Hyperlink type. On default it is Absolute(recommended). If you want to make it relative please ensure that the excel database file and the source folder containing files are both in the same parent folder. If parent folder is different, the files will be listed in database but hyperlinks might not work.
Step 7 : Click "Update Database" button. This will index the contents of selected folder in database. If you populated default database, you would have to restart DigIt before starting search by clicking close button on top-right corner. And then reopen DigIt. If you chose another excel sheet you don't need to restart and directly continue to search. The file which you selected to populate database will save itself and close.
