Working with tables

How can I add a table to a project? Make sure you have an open project, and the click on the 'New Table' icon on the tool bar, or from the Tables menu, select New Table.


How can I rename a table?
Select the table by clicking on it in the Project Browser (if it is not already highlighted) and click on its name or press F2. A cursor will appear allowing you to rename the table.

How can I delete a table?
Select the table by clicking on it in the Project Browser and press the Delete button. Please note that deleting a table from AppGini does not delete it from your database if it already exists. This is done to protect your data from getting deleted unintentionally. If you really want to delete (drop) the table from your database, you can do so using phpMyAdmin or a similar MySQL administration utility.

What about table properties?
Click with the mouse on any property and press F1 to obtain help about its function.

Anonymous table permissions
You can set the permissions of anonymous users in AppGini before file generation. And you can change them later from the admin area. Please be very careful with setting the anonymous permissions to avoid compromizing your data.


Note: If your AppGini application is already set up on the server, you should change the anonymous permissions from the admin area rather than from here.
