Unable to include Database in the name of a Tab

I am using DbVis to access a large number of databases that exist on a single Informix instance (and hence the are access with a single DbVis connection). When I'm looking at a the "Object View Tab" list (containing all of my open tables), it would be nice to know the database that a particular table is from. However, according to the documentation at http://www.dbvis.com/doc/9.0/doc/ug/tabs/tabs.html, ${database} does not seem to be a supported option when naming the tabs. Is it possible to update the product to support a ${database} variable? That way, as demonstrated in the attached screenshot, I'd be able to clearly identify which table belongs to which database (just by looking at the tabs)...

Hi Scott, Assuming you use a recent DbVisualizer version, the ${catalog} variable contains the database name: http://confluence.dbvis.com/display/UG92/Changing+the+Tab+Label Best Regards, Hans
