    <p>The keyword you are looking for that describes your problem is "Game state management" The XNA website has a few good articles on it, be sure to read this one: <a href="http://create.msdn.com/en-US/education/catalog/sample/game_state_management" rel="nofollow">http://create.msdn.com/en-US/education/catalog/sample/game_state_management</a></p> <p>Now to answer your question more directly. Say you have 2 different states -Menu -Game</p> <p>First create a class called State with methods to setup draw and update the correct UI elements.</p> <p>Now create a class MenuState deriving from State and override the setup, draw and update methods. In the setup method put all the code to generate the correct menu. (Like Scene.MenuItems.Clear(); Scene.MenuItems.Add(new Label(..)); etc..). Do the same for the update and draw methods (update and draw each control, capture events given by clicks on buttons etc...)</p> <p>Do the same for GameState.</p> <p>Now in your Scene code make a field "State state". When a user presses escape set state to (a new) MenuState. When a user returns to game set state to (a new) GameState. In the scene's update and draw methods place a call to state.Update(..) and state.Draw(..). Because you've overriden these methods in GameState and MenuState the correct actions will be performed.</p> <p>This approach solves the issue of having a gazzillion controls that do checks like "if(scene.StateEnum == StateEnum.SomeState){DoThis();}". You will find this way easier to manage.</p> <p>Also think about building other conceptual classes. Like the MenuState could have a substate, "Options menu". Maybe think up a form class, etc...</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.
