Data Dictionary

Posted by Admin on 30-Dec-2003 23:40

Hi all,

I run DATA DICTIONARY function on Progress software and I got a message as: BECAUSE OF THE VERSION OF PROGRESS YOU ARE USING, THE DICTIONARY IS IN READ-ONLY MODE. Could you tell me how to run this function in full-mode.

Wish you Happy New Year.

Thanks and best regards,

If you don't have the development version of progress then the only other way I know is in the "my computer" window choose tools / folder options , then chooose "file types" then select "DB" and choose "advanced" select "Edit in the Data Dictionary (Single User)" and choose edit. At the end of the "Application used to perform action" section put a space and -rx . Then you can double click on a DB file and it should open it in the data dictionary in non read only mode. You will of cause be limited in what you can do in the non development version.

example line :-

"D:\Program Files\PROGRESS\bin\prowin32.exe" -p _dict.p -1 "%1" -rx

Robert.
