| Database | | | | | Question: | | Why do I get an error when I try to save my model to a database? | | | Answer: | | Maybe you haven't set the Project Name of the Model. Go to the Edit Project Dialog box and enter in a Name for the model before trying to save to a database. | | | | Installation | | | | | Question: | | How can Blueprint create a default database repository for me if I don't have Microsoft Access installed? | | | Answer: | | It is not necessary to have a DBMS installed on your computer to create a Blueprint data repository. Microsoft provide a free ODBC driver to create data repositories in the Access database format. Blueprint will be able to interact with this repository even if Access itself is not installed. | | | | | Question: | | I asked for a default repository to be created for Blueprint but it doesn't seem to be working. | | | Answer: | | Most likely your computer does not have an ODBC driver installed. If your computer does not have the required driver, you can obtain it by downloading a Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) file from their website at: www.microsoft.com/data/download.htm | | | | Spatial | | | | | Question: | | Why can't I select a Spatial relationship between two spatial classes? All the spatial options are greyed out. | | | Answer: | | You most likely have not set a "Feature Type" (e.g. Point, Area) in the classes you are trying to create the relationship for. Edit the classes and add a feature type for them then try again. | | | | Templates | | | | | Question: | | When I try and run a template I get the following error: "Could not connect to data model database". Why? | | | Answer: | | Check that you have specified a database DSN in the Options->Preferences->TEMPLO Tab (Database parameters field). | | | | | Question: | | When I try and run a template I get the following error: "Could not delete from table: CODELIST". Why? | | | Answer: | | You are using an empty database repository without the "Create Tables" option set in the Options->Preferences->TEMPLO Tab.Check the "Create tables" box in this tab and try running the templates again. |
