Getting Projects from the Server Repository

This topic describes how to get projects from the server repository. It includes the following information:

• Getting All Projects from the Server Repository
• Getting Some Projects from the Server Repository
• Getting Locale Data from the Server Repository

A Get is the act of copying a project from the server repository to your local repository. The Get is different from checking out in the following ways:

• Getting a project does not lock this project in the server repository.
• Getting projects overrides all locked and unlocked projects on your local repository.

To start the executable that performs a Get, the following situations must exist:

• The user must be the same user who installed Siebel Tools on the local computer.
• You must set the ODBC driver that Siebel Tools uses to perform the Get to System DSN instead of User DSN. This configuration allows any user to do the Get.
