How to view info of an "asociated table in .EAP"?

[chrvi]

Hi there,

could you please advise me how to view tables mentioned in Automation section of EA help?

For example, in a help section for Package (just above the table of Package attributes) is a note:
Associated table in .EAP file: t_package

How can I access this table?

Or is there another way of discovering various values I could store in an object attributes and their meaning?

For example, how can I know what to set in Package.Flags attribute? I've never seen a bit of documentation of fields like that...

Thanks in advance :-)

Nope, others have this problem.

You can always read these through the appropriate DBMS, or MS Access for EAP files.

However, take a look at the Report and Search View. You'll need to have a model open before you can reach the view. When you have the model open in EA, from the main menu choose View | Report and Search View, or use the Control-Alt-R. The resulting panel defaults to the Report View; you can change to the Search View via the option button at the top left.

Check the documentation and experiment a little. Hint: change the Search drop-down to try out other settings.

This seems to have evolved somewhat in EA 7.0. However, the tricks you learn in 6.5 will help you understand what you need to know in 7.0, so playing around with the Search View will be time well spent.
