INFORMIX Visionary Tutorial

List of Tasks

Tutorial Task #2

Connecting to a Database

When Visionary starts, the Open Database dialog box displays asking you for information about the database you intend to use. Use the stores7 database that your DBA installed.

In the Open Database dialog box, enter your Informix server name, stores7 for the database name, and your user name and password. Click OK.

Database connection information must be defined before you can connect to a database. Use the Informix Setnet32 utility to specify the database server and host information on your computer. You can also find details about the Setnet32 utility in the Informix Client Products Installation Guide for Microsoft Windows Environments on the Visionary InfoShelf.
