Frequently Asked Questions

In order to profit from automatic linking you should think of adding link and relations fields to every table you create. You will soon find it very natural to add the linking information into the table. After all you do the same with your Delphi, C++ and/or Java classes, don't you? Once you have defined your links and relations, they are respected by the database in every query. Even if you don't have any search-criteria, only corresponding detail records will be shown for every master record. In the rare case that you don't want this default linking you may always enter another equate join that overrides it.
