Hi,

When I create a new index, the database dictionary select the first area on the list.
I'm using 2 areas (for storing datas and indexes separately), and the first area on the list corresponds to the area for datas.

Is it possible to specify a parameter in order to define an area by default when I create index ?

Thanks for help,


Environment : OpenEdge 10.2B - SLES11SP1
 
A quick glance at the source code of the gui data dictionary (extractpl.bat adedict.pl from %DLC%\src) seems to indicate that this functionality is not present - the default is the first non-schema area and if this does not exist fall back to the schema area (area 6).

You could adjust this, but will need to remerge your modifications with each new service pack / installation.
 
I would not recommend you to do that - whenever you are upgrading or installing a patch chances are that you will lose your modifications or will need to re-apply your modifications because Progress changed the procedure you've modified.

Instead I would use a modeling tool or change my working methodology.

Heavy Regards, RealHeavyDude.
