Hi All,

To open a different database from default database in RTC, I went to config file and changed the Database Name from " Demo Database NAV (6-0)" to “Aqua”, and restared the DynamicsNav service. But still the RTC is opening the default Cronus. I even checked the Event Logs, there are neither errors no warnings.

Please guide me… Thnx in advance…

Regards,

Venu

Did you make the change in **CustomSettings.config** file?

After that you need to restart the following service: Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server

and it should work.
