The Manager Toolbars
You use the manager toolbars to open the DataView development tools, specifying settings for your application or to get several kinds of information. As an alternative for the toolbars you can use the right mouse key to open the manager menu. It provides the same functions like the toolbars, but additionally offers the possibility to open existing application-specific default master lists. The manager toolbars and the manager menu are only available to
-> developing users.
