Hi
Is it possible to get captions and descriptions of sql server table field into framework manager?
In my table, descriptions exist for each filed and when i checked knowledge base, it says "Framework Manager automatically assigns a description to the Query Items and Query Subjects if one exists in the data source." but when i bring the  datasource , it doesnt bring the descriptions. Anyone can tell me what should i do to bring the description from datasource.
Thanks in advance.

Can you export the DB descriptions to a file? If so then you could trying to import them in FM the same way as you would do for alternative languages.
I haven't tried this but I would give it a try...

Good luck
