Some issues...

So - you can CONNECT to your server, right?
Currently vStudio opens ALL databases of a server connection automatically,
so you should see your registered databases in Studio's browser window,
right?

Hhm - the registering of databases is done by Valentina Server itself -
Valentina Studio ONLY sends an appropiate command to the server. So - maybe
you have not enough access rights on the server - or - to be more precise:
The SERVER does not have the right to access these files - please check that!

Yes - this is a known issue which will be fixed.

Yes - this is a bug as far as i see. But - all server databases should
already be open...

Yes - this would be fine. But this must be funcionality of the server -
Valentina Studio can not do this without help from the server...
Ruslan - what do you think? Wouldn't it be nice to have this remote file
browsing capability?

As far as i know we currently do not have a ODBC driver for Valentina -
at least not for the new version 2.x. Ruslan?

In case of Valentina Studio: It can work with any ODBC driver on Mac and
Windows for read-only access to third party databases.
