You can create any table or other object for which the
status is blank (i.e., the object is not in Conflict, Exists, Pending,
etc. status). For an object that is subordinate to a table, the generated
SQL must create both the associated table and the object or the table
must already exist. Generally, the best method for creating an object
depends upon the number of objects you want to create and the associations
among them.
- To create a single object, right-click the name
and select Create Object from the shortcut
menu. The Select check box setting is ignored.
- To create a table and subordinate objects, right-click
the table name and select Create All Selected Table Objects form
the shortcut menu. The Select check box setting
is ignored for the table but governs the subordinate objects to be
created.
- To create several unrelated objects listed on the
tab, select the appropriate Select check boxes
before selecting Create All Selected Objects from
the Tools menu.
- To create all objects listed on the tab, use the Select
All Objects shortcut menu command before selecting Create
All Selected Objects from the Tools menu.
Note: A generic Optim™ primary
key or relationship is automatically created as an explicit object.
