<p class="Help-Info-Line">Why did I get this message?</p>
<p class="Help-Text">Point of Sale could not create your company data file. The most likely cause is a firewall blocking access to the data. Try the solutions below, one at a time, until the operation can be completed.</p>
<p class="Help-Text" style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;">&#160;</p>
<p class="Help-Text"><font class="hcp1">Important:</font> Be sure you are logged on to your computer with Windows Administrator rights. Some firewall messages/settings and some Windows settings can be viewed/edited only by users with Administrator rights.</p>
<p class="Help-Info-Line">Possible Causes and Solutions for this Error</p>
<p class="Help-Text"><font class="hcp1">Cause</font>: You have a personal firewall installed that is blocking access.</p>

<ul>
<li class="p-Help-Nested-List">
<p class="Help-Nested-List">If you are using the firewall integrated with Windows XP, Point of Sale can automatically configure it for you. Restart Point of Sale, and when prompted about the firewall, select <font class="hcp1">Yes</font> to allow automatic configuration.</p>
</li>
<li class="p-Help-Nested-List">
<p class="Help-Nested-List">If you are using another firewall application, make sure you have the latest updates to the software. Point of Sale is registered with several leading firewall makers, meaning that with the latest updates the firewall will recognize Point of Sale and allow it to run without warnings. You can check for updates to most firewalls by right-clicking the program icon in your task bar and selecting the option to check for updates.</p>
</li>
<li class="p-Help-Nested-List">
<p class="Help-Nested-List">If you receive a firewall message saying that Point of Sale (or the applications: QBUpdate, QBDBMgrN, or Adaptive Server Anywhere Network Server) are trying to access the Internet, answer <span style="font-weight: bold;">Y</span><font class="hcp1">es, allow always</font> to allow the connection. This should prevent this problem in the future.</p>
</li>
<li class="p-Help-Nested-List">
<p class="Help-Nested-List">If the above suggestions don't resolve the problem, you may have to <a href="../qbpos_help_and_support/help_firewall.htm">manually configure</a> your firewall.</p>
