The DataWindow painter contains three customizable PainterBars and a StyleBar.
For more information about using toolbars, see “Using toolbars”.
The PainterBars include buttons for standard operations (such as Save, Print, and Undo on PainterBar1), for common formatting operations (such as Currency, Percent, and Tab Order on PainterBar2), and for database operations (such as Retrieve and Insert Row on PainterBar3).
They also include six drop-down toolbars, which are indicated by a small black triangle on the right part of a button. Table 19-2 lists the drop-down toolbars that are available. The Controls toolbar is on PainterBar1. The other drop-down toolbars are on PainterBar2.
