Online Documentation for SQL Manager for DB2

Using Navigation bar and Toolbar

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

The Navigation bar of Role Editor allows you to:

Object group

select a database

select a role for editing

General group

compile the role (if it is being created/modified)

refresh the content of the active tab

print metadata of the role

restore the default size and position of the editor window

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 role:

Description group

save object description to file

load description text from an external *.txt file

copy description to clipboard

DDL group

save DDL to file

open DDL in SQL Editor

Items of the Navigation bar are also available on the ToolBar of Role 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.
