  1. I’ve created the following 2 files and put them in the c:\VIDA folder. Double clicking on the .bat file runs the sql file and clears the VIN and I’ve not had to re-patch.

    clearVINs.bat
    pause
    osql -S (local)\VIDA -U sa -P GunnarS3g3 -i clearVINS.sql
    pause

    clearVINS.sql
    USE AccessServer
    GO
    delete from recentVINs
    GO

    Hope this helps

    1. Hi, maybe a bit of “hijacking” this thread.
      But regarding the clearVIN.bat file
      Is this your username for vida
      -> ” GunnarS3g3 ” ?
      Cause mine is just a “1”
