Retaining labels on database copies

korm · November 30, 2009, 4:31pm

When I copy a database that has labels assigned to groups, from my desktop to my laptop, and open the copy in the same version of DTPO (PB7) on my laptop, the labels do not appear in the laptop instance. When I copy the database back, the labels are back. The only difference is that I’ve defined label names and colors in the desktop DTPO that are not the same in the laptop DTPO.

Is this the expected behavior?

No. The labels should be identical on both machines and the description/color is only a user/computer-specific setting. Is there anything in the console of the laptop?

Nothing on the console. I plan to wipe out DTPO and reinstall everything from scratch on both machines the next public beta comes along. I’ll see if that clears the gremlin.
