To View the Properties of a Datasource

  1. Expand the Datasources node and log in to your datasource.
  2. Right-click your datasource and select Properties.

    The Datasource Properties dialog opens. The image below shows all available tabs.



    Cases in which you only see the General tab, and the tab is read-only:

    • If you are not logged into the datasource and you right-click the datasource and select Properties.
    • If the user you are logged into the datasource as is a member of the Restricted Administrator group who does not have granular security access to datasource properties, and also the user you are logged into the operating system as is not a member of the local Administrators group on the ProjectWise Design Integration Server computer.

    Cases in which the General tab displays (read-only), the Security and Database Users tabs are hidden, and all other available tabs display and are editable:

    • If the user you are logged into the datasource as is a member of the (ProjectWise) Administrator group, but the user you are logged into the operating system as is NOT a member of the local Administrators group on the ProjectWise Design Integration Server computer.
    • If the user you are logged into the datasource as is a member of the Restricted Administrator group who has granular security access to datasource properties, but the user you are logged into the operating system as is NOT a member of the local Administrators group on the ProjectWise Design Integration Server computer.
