Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Data Management:
DataServer for ODBC

> ## Changing connection information in a schema holder

> The Edit Connection Information utility allows you to change an ODBC data-source connection information or logical name in the associated schema.

> | To change connection information for a schema holder:

> 1. Access the Data Administration tool, if you are not already there, and select DataServer ODBC Utilities Edit Connection Information. The following dialog box appears:

> 2. Make changes to the Connection Parameters fields as required. When you are done, choose OK to return to the Data Administration main window.

> The changes do not take effect until you disconnect and reconnect the schema holder. When you reconnect, OpenEdge uses the new connection parameters.

> For details on connection parameters, see Chapter 4, "Connecting the DataServer," and the OpenEdge Deployment: Startup Command and Parameter Reference .

> Using the Edit utility to change the logical name of an ODBC data source causes the tool to close; this is because you started the tool when you were connected to the data source under another name. To continue working with the utilities, simply restart the tool.

> Note: If you change the ODBC Data Source Name (DSN), do not select a DSN that uses a different ODBC driver than the original DSN. Configuration switches residing in the schema holder are dependent on driver name. You will receive only a warning if you do use a different driver, but the schema holder configuration may no longer match the characteristics of the driver and cause unpredictable run-time results.
