Body
I'd like to follow up on Dan Olson's answer. I believe that people fear the potentially dangerous and counter-productive features of C++, and justifiably so. But unlike what Dan says, I do not think that simply deciding on a coding standard is effective, for two reasons: <ol> <li>Coding standards can be difficult to strictly enforce</li> <li>It can be very difficult to come up with a good one. </li> </ol> I think that the second reason here is much more important than the first, because deciding on a coding standard can easily become a political matter and be subject to revision later on. Consider the following simplified case: <ol> <li>You're allowed to use stl containers, but not to use templates in any of your own code.</li> <li>People start complaining that they'd be more productive if they just were allowed to code this or that template class.</li> <li>Coding standard is revised to allow that.</li> <li>Slide a slope to an overly complicated coding standard that nobody follows and use of exactly the kind of dangerous code that the standard was supposed to prevent, combined with excess bureaucracy surrounding the standard.</li> </ol> (The alternative that the standard is not revised in step 3 is empirically too improbable to consider and wouldn't be that much better anyway.) Though I used to use C++ for just about everything a few years ago, I'm beginning to strongly feel that C is preferrable in low-level tasks that need to be handled by either C or C++ and everything else should be done in some other language entirely. (Only possible exceptions being some specific high-performance problem domains, wrt. <a href="http://www.oonumerics.org/blitz/" rel="noreferrer">Blitz++</a>)

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.
