DATABASE CONNECTION
The Automation option includes a dynamic feature that enables FXDeko to read
and display information from a database. This means you can set up a layer to
query a database and display the value of a field within that database.
A database query differs from FXDeko’s existing query feature, which sends
inquiries to a newsroom automation system. Database queries send inquiries to
database files, which may be stored on a local system drive or accessed by a
LAN or WAN.
To use the database connection feature, you must have the ODBC driver
installed to support the database source. The ODBC driver is automatically
installed during installation and setup of your database software package. You
must also specify a data source name (DSN).
To view installed ODBC drivers:
1. Click Start at the bottom of your desktop, choose Settings, then
double-click Control Panel.
2. Double-click the ODBC icon to open the ODBC Data Source
Administrator dialog box.
3. Click the ODBC Drivers tab.
