Description Maksim Khramov 2005-06-09 13:15:48 UTC
Switch to runtime tab.
Select Databases->Drivers->JDBC-ODBC Driver (By default it is only one available
item in list of drivers but there can be more items)
Select 'Connect Using...' from context menus.
Now we see New Database Connection dialog. And we have ability to select here
other DB driver instead of first selected.
I think that better move 'Connect Using...' command directly into Databases node

We are planning some UI changes for the next version of NetBeans, which will
maybe solve this issue.
Comment 2 Andrei Badea 2005-08-19 12:57:13 UTC
I don't think the Connect Using action should be moved to the Databases node. If
we do it, the user would always have to explicitly select the driver from the
list box. I think the Connect Using on the driver is usually more straightforward.
