Rename database without lost my work

Greetings Forum,
after renaming my database on mysql my project (.pmp) has lost all the formatting that I had set on my fields. Therefore I ask you: can I rename the database without the project losing all the work done? Currently my database is called new_products and I would like to rename it to Products_2020. Thank you

To change to the new db, modify the database settings in the database tab, then click Tools → Synchronize.

You’d better download again, uninstall and install the new. (file phpmkr.exe size 47 MB Not a file 49 MB)

Most simplest way.

  1. Save your project and exit phpmaker
  2. Use text editor (notepad, wordpad or notepad++) to open and edit your_project.pmp file.
  3. go to the line <Database … DBName=“new_products” …> (should be line 3) and change it to <Database … DBName=“Products_2020” …>
  4. Save the .pmp file and reopen your_project.pmp file.
    Job done.
