4.24.4.3.1.4.  Editing additional tables in the PARTlinkManager

In PARTlinkManager you have the option of editing not only the ERPTABLE and LINKTABLE, but also any other tables of the LinkDB.

To do so, follow these steps:

  1. Declare the tables to be changed in the file %CADENAS_SETUP%/plinkcommon.cfg in the section ADDITIONALTABLES.

    [ADDITIONALTABLES]
    #:VALS_S
    #:HELP;default;this table is used to store references concerning PLM-systems
    t0=PLMTABLE
    #:VALS_S
    #:HELP;default;this table is used to store Assembly-structures with 
      ERP-information
    t1=DATATABLE
    #:HELP;default;this table is used to store project-specific data 
      (ie. project specific partnames for CAD-files)
    t2=PLMTABLE2

    Add the key "t" followed by a continuously increasing number. As the value for the key, enter the database table.

    t1=DATATABLE

    t2=PLMTABLE2

    etc.

  2. Start the PARTlinkManager and connect to the database (File [File] -> Connect ).

  3. Select the menu item Extras -> Database -> Edit additional tables.

  4. Select the desired table from the selection list under Select table.

    --> The table is displayed in the right half of the window and can now be edited.
