GRACIAAAAAAAAAAAS, ME SALVASTEEEE

[@samratbarat19]

Thanks, it solved the issue and educated how server name is fed. But, just one point here: you mentioned not to add the server name if the installation is Basic and showed it working on your PC, when I tried the same it didn't work but after I added the SQLSERVER (name) beside the device name it connected and brought the databases. My installation is Basic. Confused a little. Why it is so?
