Hold-down Database Editor

The program includes an editor to view and modify the hold-down data. This editor should be used to update hold-downs for newly published product information from the hold-down manufacturer. It can be also used to add new hold-downs.

The database editor is accessed from the following locations:

A button in the Hold-down data group in Wall Input and Opening Input views

Context sensitive help

Each of the input controls within the database editor has context-sensitive help, explaining its purpose and use. If you click on the question mark in the upper left hand corner of the view, then on the input control a small yellow box appears with the description of the item.
