An example of a jcatalog file is printed below. This is an example output using the jdbcExplorer embedded in CaseTalk. These jCatalog files can be stored in your roaming profile (AppData) to be used by CaseTalk next time you open the Data Explorer.

Naturally, the metadata cannot be queries, since there's no data behind it or a server to handle it, but it can be used in documenting offline catalog information or use it for reverse engineering and lineage mapping, through drag and drop.
