Viewing Metadata for Tables in a Personal Metadata Profile

Viewing Metadata for Tables in a Personal Metadata Profile

You can view metadata for the columns in one or more tables in a personal metadata profile.
You can view metadata for a single table at a time or display metadata for multiple tables, each in a separate Table window.
To view metadata for tables in a personal metadata profile:
  1. On the
    Personal Metadata
     tab in the
    Resource Explorer
    , complete one of the following actions:
    • To view a single table, double-click the table.
    • To view multiple tables, each in a separate
      Table
       window, right-click each table and click
      Explore
      .
    A
    Table
     window displays the following metadata for each table column:
    • Name
      . The name of the column.
    • Type
      . The datatype.
    • Precision
      . The data precision.
    • Scale
      . The data scale.
    • Nullable
      . The value YES or NO to indicate whether the column is nullable.
    • PowerExchange Type
      . The PowerExchange datatype. PowerExchange has different designations for some datatypes.
    • Comments
      . Comments for the table.
  2. To sort the metadata in alphabetical order by name or datatype, click the Name or Type heading in a
    Table
     window. To sort the metadata in reverse alphabetical order, click the column heading again.
    A small arrow appears in the
    Name
     or
    Type
     heading that indicates the sort order, as follows:
    • A down arrow indicates alphabetical order.
    • An up arrow indicates reverse alphabetical order.
