BusObj, ERwin, and metadata

general discussion

I am designing a data mart, using ERwin (3.5). Can I export metadata from ERwin into BusObj (4.1.2)?

You should be able to do this via ERwin’s repository. I once tried to read out this info, but was unable because of not knowing all these internal key values of the ERwin repository…

I’m also interested in the results… let me know. Walter

As I understand in ERwin, there is an export function to Dbase format. If you export to Dbase, then you can build a SQL statement that would extract the information in an external strategy (I can write more about that) to populate a universe.

Let me know how successful you are.
