UltraLite DBN connection parameter

Differentiates a databases by name, when applications connect to more than one database.

Connections to a database that has already been opened.

DBN=db-name

Depends on the platform in question:

• On Palm OS  The default value is the creator ID.

• On all other platforms  The default value is derived from the file name value by removing the path and extension, if they exist. Cannot exceed 16 characters in length.

UltraLite only sets the database name after the database has been opened. Client applications can then connect to this database via its name instead of its file.

Any leading or trailing spaces in parameter values are ignored. This connection parameter's value cannot include leading single quotes('), leading double quotes ("), or semi-colons(;).
