Jeff Please make sure your DICTionaries are accurate and reflect the date.
All Single values should be described as S, all Multi-Values should be described as MVs and all sub-values should be described as MS All associated MV and MS should be in Phrases - ideally all unassociated MVs should have their own PHrase. Don't have DICTionary entries you don't want (makes both speed and VSG so much easier - "Add All....."). I set up a separate account for ODBC access (by group of users) with separate DICTionaries for ODBC accessible files and pointers to the live data level (only) files. Create you DICTionary entries here, not in the live dictionary file (unless you are VERY unusual and only have "clean" dictionaries (I've never seen it....). All names should be SQL compatible (no periods or "@"s, etc - VSG will do this for you but again I like to have control). If you change the dictionary drop the schema first and then recreate it afterwards. Save the SQL used to create each schema from VSG - put it in paragraphs in case of need. Create all schemas using a HAT (functional user) not an individual user name. Whoever creates them owns them - and you do not want that user id deleted. Regards JayJay -----Original Message----- From: Jeffrey Butera We may embark down the ODBC connectivity path with Unidata (7.1.8 on solaris 9). My understanding is that I need to get the UniData clients toolkit and, in particular: UniODBC, the UniDK developer's Toolkit, and the Visual Schema Generator. Can anyone confirm this, and how/where I obtain these downloads if I already have a licensed Unidata product (yes, I have serial number, etc). All I've found on the IBM website is trials/demos.
