How do I get it to prompt me again?

The Task
In the initial phases of your evaluation of the Mertech SQL solution, you probably want to compare and contrast your application running against Btrieve and against SQL. Perhaps you want to compare dialogs or reports to ensure the data is all looking the same; or you may want to compare speed.
