Creating a local catalog

  1. Choose File > New > Other to display the New dialog box.
  2. Choose OpenEdge > Meta Catalog > Meta Catalog.
  3. Choose Next to launch the Create Meta Catalog wizard.
  4. Fill in a Meta Catalog name and choose Next. All catalog names must be unique and are case-sensitive. If you want to use a master catalog, you cannot have a local catalog with the same name.
  5. Select the Create new database toggle box and fill in the information for the new database.
  6. If you want to create a catalog with the default settings, choose Finish. Otherwise, choose Next to step through the remaining wizard pages and customize the catalog.
You can change the definition of a catalog later through the Preferences window.
