OSWPWMDB - OS/2 WARP SEARCHES MIGRATION DATABASE AND ASSIGNS SETTINGS
01/15/96
=======================================================================
OS/2 Warp Searches Migration Database and Assigns Settings
=======================================================================
Please Read Entire Document for Full Explanation of Procedures
--------------------------------------------------------------
DESCRIPTION
When you create an icon with customized settings and try to activate it
in the Templates folder, you discover other settings were automatically
assigned. The settings must be manually changed.
RESOLUTION
Note: In OS/2 Warp, any new program that has an entry in the database,
adopts the default settings described in the database.
This is working as designed. OS/2 Warp has a feature that searches the
migration database and assigns settings for application matches.
Each application on the Desktop has an EXE name. OS/2 Warp checks the
migration database for this name. If a name exists in the database,
OS/2 assigns the same settings to this object that match those in the
migration database. This might be a problem if a new version of an
application has different settings.
