Setting up shared database profiles

You set up shared database profiles in the Database Preferences dialog box.

1. In the Database painter, select Design>Options from the menu bar to display the Database Preferences dialog box.

2. In the Shared Database Profiles box on the General tab page, specify the location of the file containing the database profiles you want to share. Do this in either of the following ways:

   • Type the location (path name) in the Shared Database Profiles box.

   • Click the Browse button to navigate to the file location and display it in the Shared Database Profiles box.

3. Click OK.

   PowerBuilder applies the Shared Database Profiles setting to the current connection and all future connections and saves the setting in the registry.
