Sybase Central is a graphical tool for managing your database servers, databases, and the objects they contain.
From within Sybase Central, you can get additional information about using and configuring Sybase Central by choosing Help » Sybase Central.
Easy command access The File menu in Sybase Central automatically updates when you select an object, providing commands related directly to that object. You can also access these commands from the popup menu that appears when you right-click an object.
Task wizards If you want to add a new object, Sybase Central provides you with wizards that walk you through the task step by step.
Drag-and-drop functionality Sybase Central supports drag-and-drop functionality for many operations. For example, if you want to copy tables to a different database, you can click and drag them to that location. See Copying database objects in the SQL Anywhere plug-in.
Keyboard shortcuts Many commonly-used commands have keyboard shortcuts; these shortcuts are listed beside the command names in the menus. See Sybase Central keyboard shortcuts.
Plug-in support You can manage a variety of database products and tools by using plug-ins. From within Sybase Central, you can get additional information about using and configuring a plug-in by choosing the plug-in name from the Help menu.
Each product is managed by a separate plug-in. The plug-ins for these products must be registered and loaded before you can use the products in Sybase Central. When you install a product, its plug-in is automatically registered and loaded.
