In older versions of the Revelation database, the account name referred to the database.   In OpenInsight, the equivalent is more clearly referred to as a Database ID, or simply @DBID.   OpenInsight .DBT files correspond to @DBID.   

There is a second ID, which often has the same value as the Database ID:  the Application ID, or simply @APPID. OpenInsight  repository storage, object code location, and event chaining are based on @APPID.  @APPID contains application specific fields, including the database name, which is stored in @APPID<2>.

Remember to use @DBID when referring to the persistent name of the database.
