Body
A few years ago a friend of mine suggested I learn Ruby. I've since learned PHP and VB.NET but I never got around to Ruby. Where can I start with Ruby? What is Ruby primarily used for? How would you describe it in comparison to PHP? Python? VB? How can I get it set up on Ubuntu 9.04? Windows Vista or 7 Home Premium? Can I set up Ruby on Rails in an existing (Apache) virtual server on a "internetless" box?

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.
