On the Home panel you see:
You can access only objects, such as queries, forms, or procedures created using this ID and objects to which this ID has been granted access. Any object you create during a session belongs to this user ID.
The function of each key depends on the panel you are looking at. You can reduce keystrokes by pressing a single function key to start the operation you want.
If your QMF administrator tailors your function keys, they may not be the same as the examples presented in this book.
Function keys that are labeled refer to the labels next to function keys at the bottom of the QMF panel.
