Main resources

There are three groups of resources in this tab:

• Resources
  • Local
  • Database - Source and Fields
• Operators and Dividers
• Components

• Resources - Local
  These are the procedure variables, input parameters and constants used in Calculation, Condition and other Components.
  
• Resources - Database
  This portion of the Main resources view has two columns: Source and Field. Source shows all available database tables and clicking on any database table name shown will display in the Field column all fields contained in the database table selected.
  
  • SOURCE
    shows all database tables and views listed in alphabetical order. To load a database table name (e.g. into a selected Retrieval object) click the table name or drag it into the object.
    
  • FIELDS
    shows all fields of the selected table listed under Source. To load a database field into an object in the Workspace (e.g. Retrieval, Calculation, etc.), select the object, then click on the field name.

  Sources (tables and views) listed in Database section come from the currently selected (default) schema. The Set button can be used to change the default schema:

• Resources - Operators and Dividers
  Operators and dividers are used in Calculations and Conditional statements. To load one of these into the selected object in the Workspace, click on the desired symbol or drag it. They consist of:

+	Plus	==	Equal
-	Minus	!=	Not equal
X	Multiply	AND	Logical AND
/	Divide	OR	Logical OR
=	Assign value of	[	Start of variable name
>	Greater than	]	End of variable name
>=	Greater or equal	(	Start of group
<	Less than	)	End of group
<=	Less or equal	;	End of statement

• Resources - Components
  Components are the executable building blocks of the procedural flowcharts. To drag an object from the Palette to the Workspace, grab the icon with the mouse, and start dragging. The functionality and the usage is explained under Working with Components.
