----------------------------------
Hi Gustav,
The problem is that a lot of people will use the modeler for working with their data model and never use it to connect to a DB. For them, they will always see an error about not having the proper driver on the classpath.
If you use a local datasource for your DB operations, you'll receive an error message about not being able to load the driver. This implies a classpath issue. I'd highly recommend you use a local datasource for your DB work.

> Please mark with a different color: e.g. red (or just waved red underline like in IDEs) the Adapters (and maybe connections too) that have no driver in the classpath. This should be all over in CM.
> This is a usability issue and such a feature is present in professional DB tools - it saves allot of time when working with differnt DBs (and especially with different DB versions).
