The Data Dictionary is a tool that lets you create and modify database
schema information including table, field, sequence, index, and trigger
definitions.
Note: If you started the Data Dictionary
without connecting to a database, only the Databases icons, an empty Database
selection list, and the Create Database button are displayed. has functionality
that is similar to DB Navigator. Consider using Learn About Progress DB Navigator since it is integrated with
Progress Developer Studio and is therefore more accessible to your
project.
To start the Data Dictionary, select from the menu of any OpenEdge perspective except DB Navigator and Debug.
When started, the Data Dictionary runs in a window outside the Progress Developer Studio Eclipse framework. Online help is available from the tool's menu bar.
