Using Navigation bar and Toolbar

The Navigation bar and Toolbar provide quick access to tools implemented in Table Editor.

 

 

 

The Navigation bar of Table Editor (in the Edit table mode) allows you to:

Object group

select a database

select a table for editing

 

General group

compile the table (if it is being modified)

refresh the content of the active tab

print metadata of the table

restore the default size and position of the editor window

 

Explorer group

browse the table subobjects using the Explorer tree

 

Depending on the current tab selection, the Navigation bar expands to one or more additional panes with tab-specific actions that can be useful for working with the table:

Fields group

add a new field

edit selected field

drop selected field(s)

 

Foreign keys group

add a new foreign key

view selected foreign key

drop selected foreign key(s)

 

Checks group

add a new check

view selected check

drop selected check(s)

 

Indexes group

add a new index

edit selected index

drop selected index(-es)

 

Triggers group

add a new trigger

edit selected trigger

drop selected trigger(s)

 

Data Management group

rollback transaction

export data from the table using Export Data Wizard

export data from the table as SQL script using Export as SQL Script Wizard

import data into the table using Import Data Wizard

 

DDL group

Items of the Navigation bar are also available on the ToolBar of Table Editor. To enable the toolbar, open the Environment Options dialog, proceed to the Windows section there and select Toolbar (if you need the toolbar only) or Both (if you need both the toolbar and the Navigation bar) in the Bar style for child forms group.
