Lists Page

The lists display objects, controls, scripts, DataWindow controls, DataWindow columns or external functions and related attributes. Lists can be filtered and sorted. More information on each entity can be displayed on request. When a list is displayed, its columns are automatically sized to be wide enough to only show the data contained in the column (see Preferences Window, Width Style).

To build your own report using the data collected in these pages, use the File / Save As menu item to save the data, and the File / Save Syntax menu item to save the DataWindow syntax. Importing the saved DataWindow syntax into PowerBuilder will allow you to view the external data source format to see how the data is stored. Building another DataWindow with the same external data source definition will allow you to import the saved data.
