Use this dialog to create an empty UltraLite database file from the schema file you are currently editing. The UltraLite database file typically has extension .udb. Utilities such as UltraLite Interactive SQL and UltraLite command-line utilities operate on UltraLite database files, and the combination of this dialog and the UltraLite utilities is useful in designing and testing databases.
The dialog has the following components:
Database type Choose one of the following options:
UNICODE Strings in the database are stored as Unicode strings. Use this option for Windows CE databases. You can also use it for Windows databases.
Multibyte character set Strings in the database are stored using an ASCII-based character set or, for languages that use multiple bytes per character, as a multibyte character set such as Shift-JIS. The character set is determined by your Windows operating system settings. You can use this setting for Windows databases.
Palm OS The database is created as a pdb file that can be exported to a Palm OS device.
Initial database ID If you are using primary keys that have a default global autoincrement setting, you must supply an initial database ID that acts as a starting point for the values in those columns.
For more information on global autoincrement columns, see .
UltraLite database file Enter the filename for the database you are creating.
