Creating Views

The Database Explorer enables you to create SQL views that are part of the database itself and are available to application programs and other clients of the database.

To create views:

  1. In the Runtime window, expand the node for a connected database.
  2. Right-click Views and choose Add View.
  3. In the Add View dialog box, type the name of the view in the View Name text field. The IDE stores the name in a database.
  4. In the text area, enter the SQL (SELECT) statement that will define the new view and click OK. The IDE adds a node for the new view ( View node ) under the Views node for the database.

Once the view is saved, you can see the data it contains by right-clicking the view in the Runtime window and choosing View Data.
