Understanding Visual Database Tools

  • 아티클

As you design a database, you create database objects such as tables, columns, keys, indexes, relationships, constraints, and views. To help you create these objects, Visual Database Tools provides three designers: the Database Diagram, Table, and Query and View designers. The following topics introduce the designers in detail, explain how to work with providers, and link to topics about database connections, objects, and multiuser environments.
