Using the Tools Menu

The Tools menu lets you access a tool from another tool. For example, you can access the Data Dictionary from the Procedure Editor. However, access to other tools is only allowed in a forward direction. For example, you cannot return to the Procedure Editor from the Data Dictionary without closing the Dictionary. Table 1–1 lists the menu options that are available when you choose the Tools menu option.
