<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>I don’t think you can associate an
element with a specific database, whatever is there is being use by all
databases. What makes you think that the element you see is database specific ?<u1:p></u1:p></span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>The only explanation might be that your
element appears in the dictionary source code after the database statement
associated with the database of interest; this might mean that the element,
although present in the dictionary, isn’t being used by your database
– if so, you could always move the element statement.<u1:p></u1:p></span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
