Lesson 4: Creating a DataWindow library

As part of this tutorial, you create a DataWindow that enables you to retrieve, present, and manipulate data from a relational database or other data source in Sybase WorkSpace. However, before you create a DataWindow object, you must complete this lesson to create the DataWindow library to contain the object.

  2. In the New wizard, select Sybase|DataWindow Library in the Wizards list and click Next.

  3. When the New DataWindow Library File wizard opens, expand SybStore_Tutorial_Web/webroot/WEB-INF/pb in the tree view to populate the Enter or select the parent folder field.
