If your
NewsPoint service is correctly configured you
will see your selected news items in the NewsPoint
database. The default database can be found at
C:\Program files\PresentationPoint\NewsPoint and
is called NewsPoint.mdb.
All news articles are stored in the item table
of the NewsPoint database. The first column called
NewsPointName always holds the NewsPoint description
you entered when setting up the news feed with
the NewsPoint configuration tool. Now you can
easily detect from which news source this article
came from or you can group your news items. Another
option is to copy the NewsPoint database and use
it for one news source only. You can have as many
NewsPoint databases as you want.
Sometimes you want to group the news articles
of a news source together. This can easily be
done by creating a new Microsoft Access query
in the NewsPoint database. Just add the item table
to the query design and filter on the NewsPointName
content you want to include in the query.
Always sort the Sequence column to see the most
recent news articles at the top of your query.
