Comprehensive Help is available for the Design Studio that includes the Database

Interface Designer. The Help provides easy access to descriptions and procedures

for all application features and for functions including various menus and tools.

Access Help by selecting Contents from the Help menu.

Menu Commands and Tools

Actions can be performed in the Database Interface Designer window using

menu commands, tools, and shortcut keys. Not all menu commands have

corresponding tools, and not all tools are represented in the command menus.

When working with database/query files, you can activate commands in several

different ways:

♦ Select functionality using the menu bar.

♦ Right-click on any entry in the Navigator to display its context menu.

♦ Click the tools on the toolbar.

♦ Double-click objects in the Navigator.

Note Database Interface Designer commands are available as listed above. Most

procedural information in this guide uses the menu access as a default method.

Please use the access method most convenient for you.

The Database Interface Designer window menu provides the common menu

structure for commands generally used with Windows programs, as well as for

commands to accomplish specific Database Interface Designer tasks.
