Do one of the following:

• In the Data Pane (GUI Testing), right-click the sheet to which you want to import the data and select Sheet > Import > From Database.

• Select Design > Checkpoint > Database Checkpoint or Design > Output Value > Database Output Value.

• You can install Microsoft Query from the custom installation option of Microsoft Office.

• OpenText Functional Testing takes several seconds to capture the database query and restore the OpenText Functional Testing window. The resulting data from the database query is displayed in the Data pane.

• Contrary to importing an Excel file (File > Import From File), existing data in the Data pane is not replaced when you import data from a database. If the database you import contains a column with the same name as an existing column, the database column is added as a new column with the column name followed by a sequential number.

  For example, if your data table already contains a column called departures, a database column by the same name would be inserted into the data table as departures1.

• Import data using Microsoft Query

• Insert a checkpoint step

The Database Query Wizard contains:
