As part of the process of creating an application, you must decide on the elements of data you need and establish them in tables. If the database you are using already contains all the data you need, add more tables.

You can use the ABF Application Utilities menu to access the Ingres Tables Utility while you define frames or procedures for the application. You cannot create a new database at this time, however. See Character-based Querying and Reporting Tools User Guide for instructions on how to use the Tables Utility to create new tables or examine existing tables.
