    <p>Sure. If you create an object that exists outside of the scope you use it in. Here is a contrived example (bear in mind my syntax will be off; my C is rusty, but this example will still illustrate the concept):</p> <pre><code>class MyClass { SomeOtherClass *myObject; public MyClass() { //The object is created when the class is constructed myObject = (SomeOtherClass*)malloc(sizeof(myObject)); } public ~MyClass() { //The class is destructed //If you don't free the object here, you leak memory free(myObject); } public void SomeMemberFunction() { //Some use of the object myObject-&gt;SomeOperation(); } }; </code></pre> <p>In this example, I'm using an object of type SomeOtherClass during the lifetime of MyClass. The SomeOtherClass object is used in several functions, so I've dynamically allocated the memory: the SomeOtherClass object is created when MyClass is created, used several times over the life of the object, and then freed once MyClass is freed.</p> <p>Obviously if this were real code, there would be no reason (aside from possibly stack memory consumption) to create myObject in this way, but this type of object creation/destruction becomes useful when you have a lot of objects, and want to finely control when they are created and destroyed (so that your application doesn't suck up 1GB of RAM for its entire lifetime, for example), and in a Windowed environment, this is pretty much mandatory, as objects that you create (buttons, say), need to exist well outside of any particular function's (or even class') scope.</p>

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.
