I cannot get the login to a Salesforce Sandbox working with Apex Data Loader.  It logs into the main account OK, but not to the Sandbox account.

1.) Choose 'Settings' under Settings (yes, very redundant) in the Apex Data Loader.

2.) Where it says 'Server host (clear for default):' change the value to "https://test.salesforce.com"

3.) Click which action you want to do (insert, update, upsert, etc...)

4.) Change your username to your Sandbox username, and use your normal password

Done...
