Activating case control in a new database

When you create a new database, you can set up case control in that database before you add data to it.

Procedure

  1. Select File > Database Properties.
  2. On the Advanced page, select the Case Control option.
    Note: Case control options are only available if database replication is not installed.

    If you select a template other than <Blank>, then the case control option is read from the template. It is not possible to change the case control or Standard (SCC) control option in this situation.

    Before you finish designing the database, you need to create at least one case. If you do not create at least one case, then the database cannot be opened in iBase User except in read only mode (that is, no data can be added to it). Nor can you import data into the database in iBase Designer. For more information, see Creating a case.
