Hi Jiri,
OK, whilst it's good to know that it's not to do with the DDEX, not all software just uses the Microsoft stated methods. I use Firebird with Capable Objects Enterprise Core Objects (ECO) and that only needs the connection, so the only thing I'm actually interested in is the ability to configure the ConnectionString, which was why I noticed the designer was missing. Whilst it's easy enough to get around, I do miss the convenience. Thank you for letting me know it was deprecated. However, if I wanted to return it in an additional designer library, would the code exist in the repository for an older version? Kind regards, Scott :) Jiri Cincura wrote: > Guys, you're both missing something. > > 1. It has nothing to do with DDEX. > 2.
