Discovering and adding points

The discovery process uses the Rdbms Point Query Sql property to query the targeted rdb database and return only those points that satisfy the query.
  1. Click the Discover button (at the bottom of the view). This executes the query (as defined in the Rdbms Point Query Sql property) and any discovered points appear in the Discovered pane at the top of the view.
  2. Double-click on the desired Rdbms Point Query component.
    The Rdbms Point Query Manager view opens.
  3. At the bottom of the view, click the Add button.
    The Add window opens, with all selected points in the top pane of the window.

    The Point Manager's Add button is available when you select (highlight) one or more data item in the top Discovered pane. The toolbar has an available Add tool, and the Manager menu has an Add command. Also, you can simply double-click a discovered item to bring it up in the Add window

  4. Configure the properties and click OK.
