When PB produces a message that says: "The database is not supported in your location" probably means that the DBMS provided workstation client software is not found/installed. For example, if you are using Sybase but did not install Open Client (Net-Lib and either CT-Lib or DB-Lib) software in the Windows environment then you will get a message exactly like that.
