How to Add Naming Standards

How to add naming standards to a reverse engineered model?

Solution:

Follow these steps:

  1. Create a model and include the naming standards.
  2. Save the model as a template.
  3. Select this template in the Match template field of the New Model dialog.

Unable to use a Reserved Word

Symptom:

When I try to reverse engineer from a script, I get the error message, "RES-1:Syntax Error - Line <number>, Offset11 <word>".

Solution:

This error message appears when you use a database-specific reserved word or a keyword. Add the quotation marks (" and ") around the word in the script and then reverse engineer.
