To go to objects that are related to an object in the Object List, complete the following step:
For example, assume that schemas are being displayed in the Object List. Right-click a schema, and click Tables. The Object List contents are refreshed to show the tables that are in that schema. Right-click a table in the list and click Indexes. The Object List now displays the indexes that are defined for the selected table.
For example, assume that in the Object List that you display the schemas for a database. Then, using the context-sensitive navigation, you show the tables for the schema and then the columns for a table. The navigation sequence is the list of schemas, tables, and columns.
As you go back and forward through the navigation sequence, the Object List reflects any objects that have been dropped or altered. For example, assume that you display tables in the Object List, display the columns for a table, and then drop a column in the table. If you go back to the list of tables and then forward to the list of columns, the dropped column is not displayed. In addition, if you change the filtering, sorting, or column resizing characteristics for the object type that is being displayed, these changes are retained as you traverse the navigation sequence.
