DataWindow Designer connects to the database profile that is set as the active connection in the Database painter when you:
Create or open a DataWindow object
Open the Database painter
If you install the EAS Demo database and the ODBC interface when you install the DataWindow Designer plug-in, the EAS Demo DB is set as the active connection when you first use the plug-in. When you create or connect to a different profile in the Database painter, that profile becomes the new active connection and is written to the Windows registry.
An active connection is required
You need to establish an active connection in the Database
painter before you use a DataWindow wizard to create a new DataWindow
object.
This book describes how to connect to your database when you are working in the DataWindow Designer plug-in.
