Attributes Tab Page
The tab pages are filled when a table is opened. When no table is opened, all the tab pages – including this Attributes tab page – become inaccessible.
This tab page shows information about the properties of the selected table. None of the values can be changed or entered via Database Explorer.
The information about the maximum number of records, compression, lock type, and transaction will not be displayed when the table is not a member of the embedded database. The current number of records value will not be calculated automatically when the table is not in the embedded database. A special "Calculate Now" button appears for these tables.
