Tracy J Powell: "Thank you VERY much for the quick and helpful response. I will definitely upgrade as soon as possible. Your products are great and I use them daily".
Alex Torin: "Several months ago I downloaded the trial versions of several Microsoft SQL administration tools that I was able to find using google. I had considerable trouble with most of them crashing... but using your product I was able to isolate and solve the problems I was having. I decided to add it to my toolkit and have recommended it to a few others".

Create Synonym Wizard

New synonyms are created within Create Synonym Wizard. In order to run the wizard you should either

 

select the Object | Create Database Object... main menu item;
select the Synonym icon in the Create Database Object dialog

or

select the Synonyms list or any object from that list in the explorer tree;
select the Create New Synonym... item from the popup menu

or

open the schema in Schema Editor and the Synonyms tab there;
press the Insert key or select the Create New Synonym... item from the popup menu (alternatively, you may use the corresponding link of the Navigation Bar).

       

To create a new synonym with the same properties as one of the existing synonyms has:

 

select the Object | Duplicate Database Object... main menu item;
follow the instructions of Duplicate Object Wizard.
 

The basic principles of Create Object Wizards in MS SQL Maestro are explained in a separate topic. Below you will find a description of wizard steps that are unique for the current object.

 

Owner

Select the owner for the synonym. By default, only the owner of an object can perform various operations with the object. In order to allow other users to operate it, privileges must be granted. (However, users that have the superuser attribute can always access any object.)

 

Comment

Specify a comment to the synonym.

 

Object

Specify the base object that the synonym references.
