Tech Tip: List of Options in the Database Structure Contextual Menu
PRODUCT: 4D | VERSION: 6.5 | PLATFORM: Mac & Win
Published On: August 10, 2001

In the background of some windows in the Design Environment, interesting things can pop up when the mouse is right-clicked (control-clicked for Mac OS). For instance, if you right-click (control-click for Mac OS) in the background of the database structure window, a list of options magically appears. This contextual menu will give options to display the database properties, create a new table, print the structure, or give a list of existing tables. If one of the tables is chosen from the list, the table will be highlighted and the structure window will center on the table.
