Automatic Activation - Objects and Views Page

Use the Objects and Views page under the Automatic Activation category of the Windows Client Options wizard to specify which objects and views you want automatically opened when the Windows Client is activated. You can select more than one object or view.

The types of object views that you can specify to be automatically displayed when you start the Windows Client are:

• Factory-defined Joined objects
• Factory-defined Summary objects
• Factory-defined User Views
• User-created User Views of source objects and of any of the above objects

Note: You must select specific hosts in the Hosts page of the View and Output Definitions wizard of the object views. Optionally, you can have a valid user ID and password in those host definitions. If the host definitions do not contain valid login credentials, you are prompted to login to those hosts before the object views are displayed when you start the Windows Client.
