newbie question:connecting to a database

[kavitha thankaian]

Hi,
   
  I could solve the problem in connecting to a database,,,
  while configuring the daatsourcename by default it gets connected to the master table,,,so there i must specify the database which i like to connect,,,so now i can see the animals table in my database,,
   
  Thanks Eugene,,,
