The General page of the resource file property sheet displays the definition of the resource file. It is made up of a tree view displayed on the left hand side and values displayed on the right hand side. You can navigate in the tree view. Depending on the selected item in the resource file tree view, the right side of the dialog box changes accordingly.

Concepts	The resource editor lets you navigate through the categories and entries of the
	resource file.
	A FDWHJRU\ is a set of entries corresponding to a logical group in the resource
	file. For example, the Script category gathers all entries concerning database
	generation and reverse engineering in a DBMS.
	Each category contains one or several HQWULHV. An entry is a piece of
	information that is part of the definition of a resource file. For example, you
	can define entries for a database command, an object language
	characteristics, a report item, and so on. Each entry is part of a category or
	sub-category.

Some resource files can be shared among different models or copied in a local model. Modifications that you make to a resource file are applied differently depending on whether the resource file is shared or copied into the model:

	5HVRXUFH ILOH	'HVFULSWLRQ
	Share	Current resource file for the model constantly refers to the
		resource file stored in the resource files library. Any
		modifications made to the resource file are shared by other
		models using this resource file
	Copy	Current resource file is a unique copy of the resource file
	Copy	Current resource file is a unique copy of the resource file
		stored in the resource files library. The current resource file is
		independent of the original resource file so modifications
		made to the resource file in the resource files library are not
		available to the model. The copied resource file is saved with
		the model and cannot be used without it

When you modify a shared resource file, you should always modify a new resource file created from the original resource files shipped with PowerDesigner.

The File Name box allows you to know where the resource file you are modifying is defined:

If you are modifying a shared resource file (you selected the Shared radio button when you choose the resource file), you modify the resource file original resource file in the resource files library. This definition is shared by all models using the resource file Shared connection. To ensure that you keep the original resource file, you should only modify a new resource file created from an original resource file

The resource file properties dialog box appears. The General page contains a tree view with all the objects listed in the resource file, and their definition to the right of the tree view.

4Expand the nodes in the tree view window as appropriate.

5Select a category or an entry.

The name, comment, and value of the selected category or entry appear to the right of the tree view.

6Modify the comment or value as required.

7Click the Save tool to save the changes in the resource file.

8Click OK. You return to the list of resource files.

9Click Close in the list of resource files.

If you Click OK in the resource file properties dialog box without clicking the Save tool, the changes are saved in memory, the editor is closed and you return to the list of resource files.Then when you click Close in the list of resource files, a confirmation box appears asking you if you really want to save the modified resource file. If you click Yes, the changes are saved in the resource file itself. If you click No, the changes are kept in memory until you close the PowerDesigner session.

The next time you open any model that uses the customized resource file, the model will take modifications into account. However, if you have previously modified the same options directly in the model, the values in the resource file do not change these options.
