Hi All,

When you are in the navigator on the Tables tab, the dropdown list shows
folders and databases. It was my understanding that databases with the
yellow database symbol would be defined either in the Plus.ini file or
in the BDE Administrator.

While the Sample databases (Contax, DBSIGNUP...etc.) are present in the
list, they are not appearing in the BDE administrator nor in the
Plus.ini file.

Can someone shed some light on this mystery? Is there some other place
where those databases are defined? or are the Sample databases
hard-coded in dBase with their location under c:\ProgramData\...?

Plus.ini does have a few cryptic entries under the [Component] section
that turn out to be Registry keys, but while searching the registry for
those keys, I didn't find anything tying them a database.

Thanks!
Gaetano.
