Database On-Demand User Options (User)

The Database On-Demand User Options window allows you to set default values that Host On-Demand automatically uses to initialize input fields in new SQL statements and new File Upload statements.

To open the Database On-Demand User Options window:

  1. Navigate to the Database On-Demand desktop.
  2. Click Options.

An example of a default option is the Database URL field on the Logon tab. You can use this field to specify a default value for the remote database server that you want to connect to. Then, when you create a new SQL statement or File Upload statement, Host On-Demand initializes the Database URL field in the new statement to the default value. You can accept the default value or (in most cases) specify a different value.

Specifying a different value in the new SQL or File Upload statement:
For most data transfer defaults, you can specify a different value in the new SQL statement or File Upload statement if you do not want to accept the default value. The procedure for specifying a different value is described for each group of options below.

Some of the groups described below possibly do not appear on your Database On-Demand User Options window, depending on how your Host On-Demand administrator has configured your Database On-Demand client.
