STEP 4: Connecting the Database to ColdFusion

There are two ways to register the database with ColdFusion MX. Before ColdFusion MX 7, you had to use the

ColdFusion MX Administrator. With Dreamweaver MX 2004 and ColdFusion MX 7, there is an easier way for developers

to perform the same task, inside Dreamweaver. This step shows how to do it both ways.

Database registration from within Dreamweaver

See the Code Snippets by Feature and Tasks section of the ColdFusion MX 7 Getting Started Experience for an animated

instructional demonstration of this feature.

Learning Point: ColdFusion MX 7 Extensions for Dreamweaver MX 2004

The Dreamweaver database registration feature is only available on Dreamweaver MX 2004 and only with the ColdFusion

MX 7 installation. If you had Dreamweaver MX 2004 installed at the time of ColdFusion MX 7 installation, the installer

prompted you to install these extensions. If you do not have it, you can download it at http://www.macromedia.com.
