Controlling access to the current database
96 DataWindow .NET
Setting Script and
Font properties
Select Design>Options from the menu bar to open the Database Preferences
dialog box. The Script and Font properties are the same as those you can set for
the file editor.
For more information, see “Using the file editor” on page 17.
Editor properties apply elsewhere
When you set Script and Font properties for the Database painter, the settings
also apply to the file editor.
Setting Coloring
properties
You can set the text color and background color for SQL styles (such as
datatypes and keywords) so that the style will stand out and the SQL code will
be more readable. You set Coloring properties on the Coloring tab page.
Enabling syntax coloring
Be sure the Enable Syntax Coloring check box is selected before you set colors
for SQL styles. You can turn off all Coloring properties by clearing the check
box.
Controlling access to the current database
The Database painter's Design menu provides access to a series of dialog boxes
you can use to control access to the current database. In some DBMSs, for
example, you can assign table access privileges to users and groups.
Which menu items display on the Design menu and which dialog boxes display
depend on your DBMS.
For information about support for security options in your DBMS, see
Connecting to Your Database and your DBMS documentation.
