> The name of the DataService.

> The value for `data-service` must be a valid name from the DataService list registered to this NameServer, as defined by your appServiceName List entry in the broker properties file. If a default DataService has been defined for your broker instance, you can omit this parameter and connect using the default service.

> This parameter must be used in conjunction with the DataServer (-Dsrv) startup parameter.

> Note: Using the `-DirectConnec`t parameter on the `CONNECT` statement will override the `-DataService` parameter.

> For more information on the `CONNECT` statement, see the OpenEdge Development: Progress 4GL Reference .
