How to: Create a Page to View a Virtual Table

Virtual tables are not stored in the database, therefore you cannot view them directly. To view a virtual table, you must create a list page that is based on the virtual table.

  1. In the development environment, on the Tools menu, choose Object Designer.

  2. In Object Designer, choose Page, and then choose the New button.

  3. In the New Page window, in the Table field, enter the ID of the virtual table. Virtual tables have IDs in the range 2000000001 – 2000000203.

  4. In the Page section, choose Create blank page, and then choose the OK button.

  5. In Page Designer, in the first row, enter a name for the container, such as VirtualTablePageContainer. Verify that the Type is Container and the SubType is ContentArea.
