Create, Open, and Save Environments

CA IDMS Visual DBA gives you so many ways to customize your session options and object tables. It lets you save your customized environments so that you do not have to redefine them each time you start a session.

For example, suppose you 'tear-out' a branch of the object tree and display it in a new window. You can save that view of the tree in a configuration (.CFG) file by using the File Save As command.

The next time you want to use that view of the object tree, you can open the configuration file using the File Open command. Similarly, you can create a new configuration file by clicking File New.
