After launching the schema editor, you are asked to connect to a database. On the Connect dialog:

Select an ODBC data source pointing to the desired database.
Enter the data source, user ID, password and database owner required to log on to that database.
Click Connect.

After connecting, the schema editor appears.

Use the File/Open dialogue to select a schema from the schema directory. Refer to The Options Menu for information about setting the default schema directory.

Note: When opening a schema, the schema editor validates the schema and any errors are displayed. Refer to Validating a schema for more information.
