How do I create a link to a database repository?

[mpolo]

Hi all,

Is there a way to create this link  (like test.lnk) maybe something in the command line?

How is the db connection info stored on the client?

(I'm using the 744 build, corporate edition)

Thanks in advance,

Michael

If you use default EAP files, they are nothing than MS Access databases. You access them via the file system. Just do this like for any file: use "create link" (or whatever it reads in english) from the explorer's context menu. (There's also a way to create symbolic links with NTFS but you need special tools since the explorer does not expose this interface.)

If your repository is on a database, EA has a build-in connection wizard to guide you to the repository in question. Note that sharing such repositories needs EA professional or corporate edition.
