Workbench 5.1
Under the “Database” menu item, use the “Reverse Engineer”
CTRL+R, “Forward Engineer”CTRL+Gor “Synchronise Model”CTRL+Yoptions depending on what action you wish to carry out.I would imagine that you would most likely wish to use Reverse Engineer as it allows you to generate and amend a visual model of an existing schema.
Workbench 5.2
On the “Home” tab (
View > Home) connections are listed under the “SQL Development” heading on the far left-hand side of the screen.To open a connection from here you either need to double-click the connection itself or click on “Open Connection to start Querying” which should present you with another window from which to select a connection, set usernames/password etc.
