Setting up your work environment

Depending on your goals, you may need to take certain steps to set up your work environment.

If you want to be able to access databases and discover information about them, you create a connection to those databases. After you have set up connection information for a database, you can connect, refresh a connection, browse the objects that are contained in a connection, view an overview diagram of the objects that are contained in the connection, disconnect, and reconnect to that database. You can also edit the connection information or delete a connection.

If you are developing an application that accesses data, you create a data development project. The data development project stores your routines and other data development objects. Before creating a data development project, you need to enable workbench capabilities for database development.

If you work in a team environment, you can set up the workbench to work with CVS.
