Chapter 9 Working with Object-Oriented Models

Using the Mapping tab toolbar in object's property sheet

You use the Mapping tab in the property sheet of an OOM object to define its mappings. In the Mapping tab, you can use the following tools to manage mappings for a data source:

Tool	Name	Description
	Create Mapping	Creates a mapping for a data source that you can further define using the queries sub-tabs located at the bottom part of the dialog box. By default, you are prompted to create a data source the first time you click the Create Mapping tool. Then, you have to declare one or more source models in order to select source objects from a selection list. If child objects match, they are automatically mapped. Each time you click the Create Mapping tool for the current object, it creates a new mapping.
	Delete Current Mapping	Deletes the current mapping for the data source.
	Properties	Opens the property sheet of the current mapping.
	Launch Mapping Editor	Launches the Mapping Editor dialog box, so that you can graphically visualize the mappings of he current object together with all the mappings defined throughout a given model.
