You can configure a Default Database that will save the historical data from all Tasks in a project. After you do, when you create a new Task worksheet, you can choose either to use the Default Database or to configure a new database for that specific worksheet.
To configure the connection settings for the Default Database:
-
On the Project tab of the ribbon, in the Settings group, click Options. The Project Settings dialog is displayed with the Options tab open.
-
Open the Default Database Configuration dialog using the Default Database button.

Please refer to Database Configuration dialog for information about the fields in this window.
