Using the tutorials

Requirements

To use the InfoMaker tutorials, you need to:

  • Be connected to the Demo Database

  • Have the sample library named tutor_im.pbl open

If you do not have SQL Anywhere

This tutorial uses the PB Demo Database database that installs with InfoMaker. This is a SQL Anywhere database and requires an SQL Anywhere engine.

  • If you do not already have SQL Anywhere on your local machine or server, you must install it now. You can download and install SQL Anywhere from the SAP web site. If you installed InfoMaker in a nondefault location, you must make sure that the odbc.ini registry entry defining the Demo Database as a data source points to the correct location of the SQL Anywhere engine.
