You can open previous versions of the database and navigate through the content. You can access the content of a versioned database only in read-only mode.
Prerequisite
You have opened a versionable database containing versioned models.
Procedure
On the Explorer tab, right-click the name of the versionable database and select Log in with options in the pop-up menu.
The Login Wizard opens.
Select the filter and the language that you want to open the database with.
Select the relevant option in the Versioning state box.
If you select the versioning state Workspace, NO version, version opens, but the editable content of the database. This state is available as a version only when it has been versioned.
If you select the versioning state Current version, the database version that was versioned last opens. The content cannot be changed after opening and therefore, to emphasize this, the structure of the database is displayed in gray on the Explorer tab.
If you select the versioning state Change list, the Change list number input box will become available. Enter the number of the relevant change list or
click Select.
In the latter case, you will be offered a selection of change lists and can select
the one you want by double-clicking the corresponding row. The number of change lists offered depends on your option settings. The content cannot be changed after opening and therefore, to emphasize this, the
structure of the database is displayed in gray on the Explorer tab.
Click Finish.
The selected version of the database opens. You see the state of the database that existed at the time when versioning was performed. You can navigate through the content.
For information purposes, either head is output for the versioning state Current version, or the change list number, at the following positions:
behind the database name in the Explorer tree and in the Navigation area of the Explorer tab.
behind the name of open models.
