Installing Open Dental on a single machine

I'd like to install Open Dental on a single machine just to play around with it.

I reviewed both the server and client installation instructions, but did not see any instructions regarding installation of a local server for use with the client program.

How can I install Open Dental on just one computer, without a separate computer acting as the server?

Follow the section "Installation to a Server" on http://opendental.com/trial.html. Once that is done, you can launch Open Dental on that computer and enter "localhost" for the server name in the Choose Database window. By the way, I like your user name. 8)
