Browsing a file share

To set up a file share data source, you need six parameters:

  • domain

  • user name

  • password

  • server

  • share

  • path

You can supply all six of these in the new data source wizard.

Alternatively, you can supply the first four parameters, and then browse to the share and folder you want to work with.

Or you can supply the first five, and then browse to the folder you want to work with.

When you’re browsing, you can either click on a share or folder, or type its name like this:

Click Select to choose a folder and return to the data source creation wizard.
