    1. COIt's very hard to follow your question. You can easily check the time zone of a calendar by calling `getTimeZone`. If that doesn't give you enough information, please post a short but *complete* program demonstrating the problem. We have no idea what you mean by "My calendar variable shows a time as [...]" when we don't know how you're seeing that value.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
