Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Data Management:
DataServer for Microsoft SQL Server


Starting the Windows client process

Start the OpenEdge client process on your Windows machine by running the prowin32.exe executable. The Windows executable includes support for the DataServer.

You can create a program icon for the OpenEdge client process. On the command line for the program icon, enter the following information:

  1. The executable.
  2. The schema holder name.
  3. The connection parameters required by the remote DataServer configuration.

For example, a command line for an OpenEdge client process that you use to access an MS SQL Server database might look like this:

prowin32 mssholder -RO -db demo -dt MSS -ld demo -H host1 -S oserviceA
  -U bob -P bobpass 

Create a program icon for each unique set of connection parameters. See the "Connecting a schema holder at startup" section for command-line information and more examples.
