Preparing the Database for ODBC Access

Preparing the Database for ODBC Access Start up the Development Center (DC) and click Tools -> Remote Access -> Prepare Database. This action runs a script that populates the metadata entities that are used by non-Zim applications to acquire EntitySet information.
