Data Dictionary Syncronize
I've looked in the manual and online help but can't seem to find a
definition for the "Synchronize" right click option while in the Data
Dictionary builder. What does this do and when should it be used?
Also, when "Generate" is used, I assume it only generates fields/tables that
are not already in the dictionary? I assume it does not overwrite existing
definitions?
Thank you

Synchronize will remove any tables and fields that no longer exist in the
database. It basically checks over all of the DataDictionary entries and
verifies whether the table and fields exists in the database.
Generate will add new tables and fields. It will not overwrite existing
entries.
