    <p>When I started using <a href="http://www.nhibernate.org" rel="nofollow noreferrer">NHibernate</a>, I didn't learn about Castle ActiveRecord until I had written my Mapping files and made my classes. At that point, I couldn't visibly discern what Castle Activerecord would give me, so I didn't use it.</p> <p>The second time I used NHibernate, I simply used <a href="http://www.mygenerationsoftware.com/portal/TheGreatHallofTemplates/tabid/110/Default.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">myGeneration</a> to make the mapping files and the classes just by having it look at my database. That saved a lot of time by itself, and allowed me to (once again) not worry about Castle Active Record.</p> <p>In reality, most of your time is going to be spent making the custom queries, and Castle Active Record won't necessarily help with that -- if you were to use myGeneration with NHibernate, you'd bypass most of the work you'd need to do anyway.</p> <p>Edit: I don't want to seem like a cheerleader for either myGeneration or NHibernate. I just use the tool that allows me to get my work done quickly and easily. The less time I have to spend writing Data Access code, the better. It doesn't mean I can't do it -- but there's little sense in re-inventing the wheel each time you write a new application. Write SQL queries and Stored Procedures where needed, and no where else. If you're doing CRUD operations, an ORM is the way to go.</p> <p>Edit #2: Castle Active Record may bring more to the table than I realize -- I don't know much other <a href="http://www.castleproject.org/activerecord/index.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">than what's on their website</a>, but if it does bring more to the table, then it would help potential adopters to be able to readily see that on their site.</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.
