DataWindow Designer User’s Guide 61
3 Define other properties of the database as needed.
If you are using a non-English database, you can specify a code page in the
Collation Sequence box.
For complete information about filling in the dialog box, click the Help
button in the dialog box.
4 Click OK.
When you click OK, DataWindow Designer does the following:
• Creates a database with the specified name in the specified directory
or folder. If a database with the same name exists, you are asked
whether you want to replace it.
• Adds a data source to the ODBC.INI key in the registry. The data
source has the same name as the database unless one with the same
name already exists, in which case a suffix is appended.
• Creates a database profile and adds it to the registry. The profile has
the same name as the database unless one with the same name already
exists, in which case a suffix is appended.
• Connects to the new database.

3 Select the database you want to delete and select Open.
4 Click Yes to delete the database.

database.
