Location types

Chapter 8 Managing Objects

The following location types are available :

Location Type	Description	Location box
Embedded	When a file object is embedded, it is stored within the model. You save it when you save the model. At creation, a file object is always embedded and has a default name with a .TXT extension that is displayed in the Extension box of its property sheet	The Location box is grayed as there is no need to define a location
External	When a file object is external, it is not stored within the model. It represents in your model a reference for a file that you access on your disk or via a given drive	The Location box must be filled with the appropriate file path (for example D:\MyModel\File_1.txt) by browsing for the required file in the standard Open dialog box that is displayed
URL	When a file object is an URL, it is not stored within the model. It represents in your model a reference for a file that you access using a Web address	The Location box must be filled with the appropriate URL path (for example http://www.Sybase.com)
