Connecting to a data source
To use a data source, Analyst's Notebook must connect to it. When a data source is connected, you can access its data and use the features that the data source provides.
About this task
If the Connect menu that is in the Data Sources group of the Home tab is disabled, or does not contain commands for the data source that you want to connect to, you need to take more action. For example, to connect to iBase databases, you must install the iBase user application on your workstation, even if the database is stored elsewhere.
Analyst's Notebook connects automatically to some data sources.Procedure

If the Data Sources pane is displayed, and the data source provides access to its features through the pane, the source is selected at the top of the pane. Features that the source provides are displayed in the lower part of the pane.
