Grouping Database Objects

You can group shortcuts to related objects of different types together using the Groups bar . When you first create a group, it is empty until you populate it with shortcuts to the related objects. When you add an object to a group, you do not change the object's original location, nor are you creating a new object. Instead, you are simply creating a shortcut to an object that already exists.

Create a Group and Add a Group Shortcut

In the Database window, click the Groups bar.

Right-click anywhere under the Groups bar.

Click New Group, type a name for your group, and then click OK.

Drag an object from the Object list to the group.

Remove a Group Shortcut

In the Database window, display the database group with the shortcut you want to remove.

Select the shortcut, press Delete, and then click Yes to confirm.

Did You Know?

You can delete or rename a group . In the Database window, click the Groups bar, right-click anywhere under the Groups bar, and then click Delete Group or Rename Group. When you rename a group, type a new name, and then click OK.
