New user trying to import metadata from a txt file
« on: September 07, 2009, 07:04:17 pm »
Hi,
I have to  import a db metadata saved as txt file. Can you please help me? I didn't find how to do it in the help file...

On a second choice I could get the interbase 6.0.1 database file (GDB file) and trying to import the structure from it. I understand I'll need an ODBC driver for this operation. Can you suggest what and how to use?

Thanks,
Enrico

It's not possible to import DB schema from a script - you ned to use ODBC as explained here...
