Hi All,

I use documentum 5.3 and I would like to choose the docbase every time I log in.

Basically I have that documentum registry the last docbase choose and I would like to choose it each time that I log in.

I tried to delete everything in my local pc (All folders such as: C:\Documentum ; C:\Documents and Settings\<user name>\Documentum ; C:\Documents and Settings\<user name>\Local Settings\Application Data\Documentum and the browser cache) Even thought I have the last docbase registered.

When I go to preferences I have the docbase selected as "favorite" it means that each time I connect I will be redirected to this docbase, if I put this in the left column it will work fine the next time but it will registry again the docbase as favorite when I log in.

So I would like to find the place/file where these preferences are set to clear automatically before login.

Find here the image of preferences.

Thank you very much,

Lucas

    with D6 preferences are stored in global registry in a cabinet named Preferences (Resources/registry if I remember)

    But you can check file webtop/wdk/app.xml and change this path

    Override it for your application in order not to be disturbed by any other webtop webapp instance

    I think you can clear it by code using the preference manager

    Hope this helps

    rroy,

    Unfortunately, the OP is still on 5.3, so the registery methods provided by DFC will not work.

    Be a while since I played in 5.3 land, but I do know that WDK/Wedbtop settings used to be stored in browser cookies.

    Suggest you delete stored cookies and try again.

    Another way to test if I am right, is to use another browser or use another PC. This was why EMC moved to storing user preferences in the repostories in D6
