Dictionary and the Database Specification, are
most useful to anyone who deals with the
application's database. If you use the Ad Hoc
function to examine and manipulate database
tables, for instance, you can look up
information regarding an element (such as what
table the element resides in) using these
documents. They are linked to each other for
easy access to similar information. GUIDE.
