Setting Up the Client Environment
All client data sources connect to the preconfigured server data source on the Neoview database,
which is TDM_Default_DataSource. Only one data source, TDM_Default_DataSource, can be
configured on the Neoview database, but you can create other data source definitions on the
workstation. You can have more than one schema on the Neoview database. Instead of changing
the schema definition in the data source definition on the workstation, you can create multiple
data source definitions on the workstation with different schemas. However, the connection will
default to TDM_Default_DataSource.
Troubleshooting
You can repair the ODBC client installation when the Windows Registry or a necessary ODBC
file becomes corrupt, or a file is deleted by mistake.
