I just wanted to understand the basics. I would use c# as the underlying language. I know it's vague. I was hoping for something very basic to direct me. </p> <p>I think I'm mostly interested in creating scripting languages. For example, I see people that write programs but then they have a scripting language for their application. I do not want to rewrite a windows scripting language. Say I had a text file reader and for some reason wanted a scripting language to automate something. I'm not sure how to ask.</p> <p>Thank you.</p> <p>EDIT - Thank you for the answers. I was looking at it more for the learning not the doing at the moment. I would probably use LUA, but I am trying to learn more about the concept in general.</p>

    1. CO@johnny: Got that - what I meant is that I would take a look at how Lua does it. It's small, the source is quite comprehensible, and the documentation is very good.

    2. COReasons for close voting clearer now - not sure I'd consider them actual duplicates, though, all of them being quite vague. I wish there were a way of merging them :)

    3. CO@Mihai: There are actually a lot of compiler and interpreter questions. But they are a pain to find, so I certainly don't blame johnny. But linking them all together should help when the long promised merge tools come on line.

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.
