6.9 Adding a Database Frame
The Database frame allows information stored on private systems databases to be shown on a
display. To add a Database frame, complete the following steps:
1. Click the Database
icon from the left
toolbar. The Database
dialog window will
open as shown in
Figure 78 and a new
frame will be added
to the message.
2. Click the down
arrow next to the
Source field and
select the
appropriate
database.
Note: Databases must be configured prior to being selected.
3. Click the down arrow next to the Table field and select the appropriate table.
4. Set the starting point for database information to begin. Row one in the table is
equivalent to the first result. So, if the displayed information is to begin on the
second row of the table, the starting result should be set to two.
5. Set the number of
results to be
displayed from
the table. If the
starting result is
set at two and the
next fifty rows of
the table are to be
shown, then the
number of results
should be set at
fifty.
6. Select the
Changes Only box to show only the data that have experienced a change in value.
Note: Binary data types are not supported and will not be displayed.
7. Click the Appearance tab to set the layout of the information on the display as shown
in Figure 79.
