    Just trying to connect a database to geographics and the connection wizard
    asks for a database login.

    What exactly is required in this field.

    Do you have to create the database prior to entering geographics or is the
    database created via geographics.

    Camelion ...
    GeoGraphics can't create a database for you. There are reasons for this:
    1 ODBC is primarily a data query language, not a data definition language
    2 Most databases don't let a user create tables without the appropriate
    rights

    SQL Server or Oracle database:
    To create a database, you need administrator rights
    Sample SQL scripts are delivered in C:\Program
    Files\Bentley\Program\GeoGraphics\setup
    that you can run from a database prompt

    Access:
    Create tables as a normal user, or copy and edit the delivered mytown.mdb
