Using Navigation bar and Toolbar


The Navigation bar and Toolbar provide quick access to tools implemented in Design Query.

 

Query Builder - Using Navigation bar

 

 

Database

iconDB select a database for the query

iconExecute execute the current query

iconQueries_ExplainQuery view estimated query execution plan

iconQueries_RemoveQuery clear the query

iconObjects_CreateView create a view

Objects

iconDBExplorer browse objects of the database; you can also add tables and views to the diagram using drag-and-drop operations

 

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 queries:
