Environment
variable Description
SHDBNAME Specify the new schema-holder name.
MSSDBNAME Specify ODBC data source name.
MSSPDBNAME Specify logical database name.
MSSUSERNAME Specify the user name for the target data source.
MSSPASSWORD Specify the password of the user for the target data source.
MSSCONPARMS Specify additional connection parameters for the schema
holder.
MSSCODEPAGE Specify the OpenEdge name for the code page that the ODBC
data source uses. By default, the code page for a schema holder
is ibm850. You can leave this unset and use the Change
DataServer Schema Code Page utility to add the code page
information for the schema holder later.
MSSCOLLNAME Collation name.
MSSCASESEN Yes or No for Code Page case sensitive.
COMPATIBLE Create arrays and RECID. Set to 2 for using a computed column
and 1 or Yes for using a trigger.
MAPSMSSDATETIME Specify if new date and time data types should be used (set on
only for MS SQL Server 2008 or above).
VARLENGTH Total number of characters a VARCHAR can have. Any field
whose format is greater that will be defined as a text field.
Maximum is 8000.
SQLWIDTH If present, use the OpenEdge file _WIDTH field size instead of
calculating length by using the display format.
LOADSQL Allows you to specify whether you want the utility to create the
schema in your empty MS SQL Server database. Specify YES
to enable this behavior.
MOVEDATA Allows you to specify whether to populate the database.
Specify YES to dump and load data or NO to not populate the
database. For example, you might specify NO if your database
is large, and you want to dump and load data at a more
convenient time. The default is NO.
UNICODETYPES Set to YES to use Unicode types, and NO otherwise. The
default is NO.
UNICODE_EXPAND Set to YES to double the length of fields on conversion, and
NO otherwise. The default is NO.
