Modify the.mdb file

The current .mdb file shows only a single drop-down value for the release version on the J-drug dictionary loader. Modify this file to use the latest version of the dictionary.

  1. Open the jdrug.mdb from the following location:

    disk:\Program Files\Oracle\Argus\DBInstaller

    A table appears with J_Drug table supported versions (second column).

  2. To add a new version, modify the MedDRA Version column.

    For example, if 2015-OCT is the last version added, add 2015-DEC, (note that you must append a comma).

    Update MedDRA Version column
  3. Similarly, modify other rows and tables wherever the previous version number exists.
