Use these topics to learn how to create, edit, share, and manage formats.
Creating formats
After creating a query, select a format to view the query results. You can use either an existing format, or create a format that displays the information that you need. When you define a format, you can use it with multiple queries, or modify it and save it as an additional format.
Saving formats
After defining a format, you can save it and use it again, or edit it and create a format. When you save it, the format is displayed in the Personal format folder or a subfolder of that folder.
Sharing formats
After defining a format, you can share it with others. When you share it, the format displays in the Shared folder. The format is visible in all databases running on the same server.
Moving formats
You can move a format to a different folder. To organize the information in your personal folders, move queries to other folders. You can move only those items in your Personal folder.
Deleting formats
You can delete a format that you no longer need. To keep your lists in the personal folders manageable, delete unused formats on a regular basis.
