About shared database profiles
You can share database profiles in the PowerBuilder development
environment by specifying the location of a file containing the profiles
you want to share. You specify this location in the Database Preferences
dialog box in the Database painter.
Where to store a shared profile
file
To share database profiles among all PowerBuilder users at your
site, store a profile file on a network file server accessible to all
users.
When you share database profiles, PowerBuilder displays shared
database profiles from the file you specify as well as those from your
registry.
Shared database profiles are read-only. You can select a shared
profile to connect to a database — but you cannot edit, save, or delete
profiles that are shared. (You can, however, make changes to a shared
profile and save it on your computer, as described in Making local changes to shared
database profiles.)
